Show Preview: GRAPH EXPO’s Growing Role

More than Gear

While the U.S. economy will eventually improve and credit markets will loosen the purse strings—allowing for more robust capex investments—the changing face of the printing industry and the alternative sources for equipment manufacturers to allure clients to their new wares dictate that in order to survive long-term, Graph Expo needs to be more than an equipment show. Nappi & Co. appear well on their way to transforming the exhibition, which will be held Sept. 11-14 at the venerable McCormick Place in Chicago.
