About

Kevin Abergel brings two decades of successfully selling and marketing luxury print with digital embellishments and universal design to companies all over the world.

He dedicates his time to solving his customers business problems through innovative printing technologies, all with a keen eye on increasing brand engagement, increasing brand recognition, and increasing brand awareness for their products.


He believes the key to selling more product is by bringing its value proposition directly to the packaging.

He devotes a considerable amount of time thinking strategically about how this can be done using embellishments and other finishes.

He continues to study the effects of how luxury print leaves a deeper footprint in the brain, and why brands are remembered long after the box has been opened.

He embodies the idea that consumers buy packaging first and products second and empowers his team to innovate and disrupt the status quo.

Prior to founding taktiful, Kevin worked his way up the ranks at MGI Digital Technology where he worked with his father and his uncles and played an instrumental role in driving the sales and marketing of digital embellishments and luxury print.

His roles at MGI include Senior Vice President Sales and Marketing, Americas and APAC, North American Marketing Manager, EMEA Sales & Marketing Manager, Director of EMEA Marketing, among others.

Watch the Live! Replay The new Taktisphere Live! series launches with a practical conversation about curiosity, communication and why great digital embellishment begins long before anyone presses “start.” Digital embellishment is usually marketed through the finished piece. The foil flashes. The varnish rises from the sheet. A designer runs a hand across the surface and immediately understands why print can still command attention. But behind every dramatic unboxing and every show-stopping...

Embellishment 2.0: When Print Stops Being a Page and Starts Becoming an Experience
A Taktisphere Live! sponsored by Konica Minolta revealed how digital embellishment, electronics, NFC, video and software can transform print from a static message into a connected experience. A certificate that quietly proves it is authentic. A church giving piece that opens a donation page with a tap. A premium mailer that greets its recipient by name and plays a personalized video. An event invitation that remains useful after the event because its digital content can be changed. These were...
