IPMA Road Show Rolls Into Knoxville
On the heels of its successful In-plant Road Show in Boulder, Colorado, last month, the In-plant Printing and Mailing Association (IPMA) brought its third Road Show of 2025 to the University of Tennessee Knoxville yesterday. It drew 12 in-plant attendees from seven organizations for a full day of networking and education.

After a welcome from Paul Jones, director of UT Printing and Mailing Services, and Brian Browning, associate VC of real estate and operations at UT, Dan Kitchton, VP of Print Production at Konica Minolta, took the stage with a presentation titled “From Prepress to Progress: Energizing the In-plant.” Additional presentations on promo products, software, and paper followed. After lunch, attendees had a chance to visit the booths set up by 12 exhibitors and talk with them about the solutions they provide. They also got a tour of UT Printing and Mailing Services.
This was just the third Road Show of the year planned by IPMA. These events are free to all in-plants. Next up is a Road Show at Omaha Public Schools on Sept. 18. See the full list of upcoming IPMA Road Shows here.
