GRAPH EXPO & CONVERTING EXPO 2002 -- Showing Signs of Recovery

Now, fast-forward to next month's Graph Expo and Converting Expo 2002 exhibition in Chicago, scheduled for October 6 to 9 at McCormick Place South. With more than 400 exhibitors filling over 360,000 net square feet of exhibit space, attendance is anticipated to total approximately 40,000 people. And, although sales expectations among industry suppliers might not be high, economic indicators signal that the U.S. economy—and the graphic arts industry, in general—may finally be poised for some semblance of a rebound.
