Don’t Let Graph Expo Opportunity Pass By —Michelson

NO QUESTION about it. The U.S. economy continues to sputter, and so do the overall business conditions facing most commercial printers. But, even if capital equipment expenditures and software upgrades aren’t on your radar screen for the remainder of 2008, next month’s Graph Expo exhibition in Chicago is well worth attending. It will provide a unique vantage point for show-goers to grasp industry technology directions for years to come, especially since Graph Expo will be the first chance for most Americans to see products firsthand that debuted at the trend-setting Drupa exhibition in Germany earlier this year. Several of them are also highlighted in our extensive Graph Expo new product preview section that starts on page 54 in this issue.
