What to expect at PRINTING United Expo 2024 in Las Vegas

The PRINTING United Expo 2024 returns to the Las Vegas Convention Center from September 10-12, 2024. Organisers say the Expo offers education, cutting-edge equipment, and networking opportunities.

“In terms of new and innovative technology, it is certainly an exciting year,” says Mark J. Subers, president of the PRINTING United Expo. “For those that didn’t have the opportunity to attend drupa, they can experience it all at PRINTING United Expo in Las Vegas as exhibitors will be showing these solutions for the first time ever in North America, in addition to brand new, never-seen-before product launches.

“News continues to pour in from our exhibitors, showcasing their significant investment and what they have put together for our attendees, even with many shows occurring concurrently this year. Durst is one example, attending multiple events that week and being committed to bringing its powerful end-to-end solutions to PRINTING United Expo. An example of an especially extraordinary showcase, Standard Finishing Systems announced it will have its largest finishing display to date at this year’s show, with over 25 individual solutions running live from partners Horizon International and Hunkeler. Title sponsor Canon U.S.A., with the most significant footprint on the floor, will host the U.S. debut of its varioPRINT iX1700, announce brand-new products, and show a remarkable lineup of current and future digital technology. Also, Kornit Digital’s Apollo system will make its grand U.S. debut. The list goes on and on and spans every market segment across printing verticals. We couldn’t be more excited to present this all-encompassing showcase to our attendees!” 

The Expo in Las Vegas will feature a robust educational program designed to address the diverse needs of the industry. Attendees can immerse themselves in various industry experts' educational sessions, forums, and workshops. Topics will range from the latest innovations in AI, workforce development, sustainability practices, business strategies, market trends, and more.
