“The show gives us opportunities to network with an engaging audience. I was also thrilled to be able to actively participate in the virtual event. The platform was easy to use and I look forward to being a part of more Breakaway sessions in the near future!”
“I loved the online experience; it was great. Vendors do a wonderful job reaching out to me and it was a very professional event. I always enjoy in-person and now online trade shows."
“The amount of new information I gain both in training sessions and talking to the exhibitors on the floor is fantastic!"
“Having the ability to interact and speak with suppliers and educational professionals and to see new products is priceless!”
“This show is an investment in my business. After attending in 2019 and seeing the diverse cross section of information available, it inspired me to look at other products and services that we could provide to our customers, and ways to do what we do better.”
"This has always been an event that I’ve looked forward to each year, and I wanted to thank you for a very nice event yesterday. I got a lot out of the UV printing seminar in the morning and had good discussions with a few vendors as well."
"I really enjoyed the show and learned tons of new tricks to better my business. I’m grateful for this experience and the opportunity to meet with vendors that related to my line of business. There is really everything for anyone who works with designing/producing custom graphics."
GRAPHICS PRO EXPO attendees are entrepreneurial graphics professionals actively looking for new vendors, equipment and product expansion ideas. They attend GPX to discover new suppliers and product lines, meet with current suppliers face-to-face, find new distributors/dealers, research crossover markets to expand business, attend education/training classes, and interact with industry peers.
