Each January, SGIA’s committees and advisory councils come together for two days to brainstorm and discuss pressing industry issues.

The Digital Textile Printing Conference will cover topics including the newest digital textile ink and printing technologies.

The THREADX conference will feature special events for networking with peers, speakers & sponsors, workshops, and a welcome reception.
