“In creating all aspects of the event, including setting the stage for product launches and demonstrations, research, and panel discussions; we were also mindful to offer education at no cost to the industry,” says Mark J. Subers, president of PRINTING United. “During a pandemic, especially, staying on top of the latest trends and continuous learning still need to take place. This is our dedication to the industry in keeping all of that moving forward.
“Also, those companies that are usually limited to sending only a handful of employees to the in-person Expo due to budget constraints can now take advantage of world-class education, available at their fingertips, for every employee at their company regardless of their position or years of experience. Dive into sessions, queue the event up each day in the background while you work, and come away with a valuable experience over these 14 days.”
