GRAPH EXPO 2012 to Feature Special In-Plant Education Track

The Graphic Arts Show Co. (GASC), producer of GRAPH EXPO, is introducing an expanded In-Plant Education Track for this year’s event, scheduled to run Oct. 7-10, 2012, at Chicago's McCormick Place.

By partnering with exhibitors such as Rochester Software Associates (RSA), a variety of the key associations, industry publications and in-plants themselves, GASC has created a dynamic set of offerings for this year’s show, including:

• headliner event with successful peer-chosen in-plant managers who will discuss their secrets of success;
• new in-plant education track with sessions covering rebranding, growth strategies, in-plant ingenuity and multi-channel offerings;
• an in-plant networking hub on the expo floor hosted by IPMA;
• In-Plant Graphics magazine luncheon;
• RSA inaugural WebCRD web-to-print user group;
• IPMA In-plant certification examinations; and
• Xplor conference.

According to Ralph Nappi, GASC president, “We believed the time was right to create a robust education track at GRAPH EXPO to specifically address the needs of in-plant and corporate print centers. Because these operations often cross segments—such as transactional print, packaging, mailing and fulfillment, and wide-format printing—and our show brings them all together, we have a unique opportunity to provide for in-plants a variety of opportunities to get everything they need to be successful in the future at this year’s event.”
