Printing Industries Alliance to Present 'Digital Printing Think Tank' Program in New York
AMHERST, N.Y.—June 18, 2015—Printing Industries Alliance, the trade organization dedicated to supporting the success of the New York State, northern New Jersey and northwestern Pennsylvania graphic communications industry, has announced a program titled “Digital Printing Think Tank” that will take place on Wednesday, Oct. 28, in Manhattan at Club 101, located at 101 Park Avenue, New York, at 40th Street.
The event’s first panel will be a group of large and small printers that cut across the digital printing market. Moderator Mark Michelson, editor-in-chief of Printing Impressions, will lead the printers in a discussion that will talk about their path to the present and their path for the years ahead. It is predicted that digital printing, which launched in 1993 and is currently more than 20 percent of all printing, will become 50 percent of all printing by 2030. Interactivity from the audience will be encouraged and a Q&A session will follow.
Other panels will be made up of leading marketing executives from digital printing vendors as well as consultants. They will discuss how they provide press owners guidance in marketing digital printing and assistance in growing the market. Some very exciting keynoters will round out the day. A combination of highly experienced speakers and actual printer experiences will provide printers with the information they need to navigate the very fast evolving and growing digital printing market.
The all day event will offer a networking opportunity that will allow participants to compare notes and speak with sponsoring vendors who will distribute literature. The cost for an individual to register for the event is $149 and includes lunch and refreshments. Vendor sponsorships will include two vendor staff tickets and three tickets for their customers or prospects. The vendor sponsorship is $650 for those who are already annual PIA Platinum sponsors and $950 for those vendors who are not PIA Platinum sponsors. A low cost conversion to Platinum Sponsorship status will be available. Sponsors will receive recognition through event PR, literature and signage.
