June 11, 2024

Edited by Erin La Row, writer, PostPress

PRINTING United Expo 2024, a global printing event serving markets across all printing segments, will take place September 10-12 at the Las Vegas Convention Center in Las Vegas, Nevada. The three-day event, with the theme, ‘Where the Industry Gathers,’ will include over a million square feet of equipment, technology and trends on display covering all facets of the printing industry.

As this issue of PostPress magazine was going to press, more than 600 exhibitors from around the world already had booked booth space at this year’s Expo – with show organizers expecting 800 or more exhibitors to participate as had participated in 2023. The event will showcase the latest advancements in printing technology, featuring a wide range of interactive exhibits and demonstrations. Attendees will have the opportunity to explore the cutting-edge equipment, innovative solutions and groundbreaking techniques that are shaping the future of the printing industry.

For 2024, special Women in Print Alliance programming and events are being planned, as well as interactive show floor experiences and co-located segment-specific forums, such as the Apparelist Forum, PRINTING United AFTER DARK and more. The Foil & Specialty Effects Association (FSEA) will sponsor a presentation – Metallic Effects for Print. Jeff Peterson, FSEA executive director, will share information on the different metallic decorating methods available for print and the advantages and disadvantages
of each.

In a news release about the event, Mark J. Subers, president, PRINTING United Expo, said the Expo is more than an event; it’s a gateway to innovation, collaboration and boundless possibilities. Concepts in printing, such as sustainability, artificial intelligence (AI) and the latest in market trends – including net-new label and packaging opportunities – are areas of focus this year.

“In this dynamic space, connections are forged, ideas are sparked and the future of printing is shaped,” Subers said.

The three-day event includes over one million square feet of equipment, technology and trends on display, covering all facets of the printing industry.

Organizers say new and expanded show highlights are being planned for an even greater attendee experience to truly maximize the “under one roof” approach as a one-stop shop for all things printing. Highlights for this year’s event include:

Industry-leading education: paid educational sessions covering the latest trends, economics and growth areas – from industry leaders to full panel sessions led by field experts.
Market segment community hubs, guided tours, daily happy hour and more: Segment areas on the show floor will allow attendees to stop by and speak with industry leaders, renowned media and associations from around the world.
Global industry leaders showcasing technology live: Nearly 750 exhibitors already have signed up for the 2023 event, nearly selling out the show floor.
Opening Night Party: Celebrate with industry peers at the Opening Night Party, from 8-10 p.m., at the historic Atlanta Tabernacle for a night of live music, dancing, networking and more.

“We are very excited with the number of product launches that our exhibitors will be showing in Atlanta this year,” said Mark J. Subers, president – Events and Exposition, PRINTING United Alliance. “Technology solutions from direct-to-object to label printing can be found under our convergent, one-roof approach.
