Columbus, Ohio – The National Print & Sign Owners Association (NPSOA) will showcase the influence of the print and sign association at APS22. The fast-growing, 10-year-old association represents over 400 national printing and signage companies through their listserv, educational programs, publications, research, and the sharing of information to advance members in the marketplace and highlight the power of print.

Nathaniel Grant, NPSOA Chairman, says, “Partnering with Americas Print Show was a no-brainer. This opportunity allows NPSOA to extend its market reach and brand for the hundreds of member companies we serve. Our team looks forward to having the chance to meet attendees and exhibitors. The more people learn about NPSOA, the more our members profit from the experience. It’s a win-win for everybody.”

Jim Cunningham, APS22 President adds, “NPSOA was one of the first associations to join the Americas Print Show and has helped set the tone for a partnership with industry trade associations to create a show that addresses the needs of their members. Our industry has always been about small and medium size businesses. Businesses that work together to address and advance their customers print and graphic needs. 70 - 80% of printing companies are 20 employees or less, and they have been more affected by environment and the economy than anyone in the industry. We need a show that addresses the concerns of these members companies across the country, and that’s what APS22 is building and why we are partnering with associations like NPSOA.”

In addition to NPSOA, APS22 is partnering with APAN (18-20 of the former affiliate network of PIA), and PGSF, the Print Graphics Scholarship Foundation. These twenty associations and other industry trade groups memberships have over 5000 industry leaders.

APAN will be showcasing the national Americas Print Awards contest winners, and hosting a dinner and awards presentation sponsored by Graphic Media Alliance (the local APAN association). PGSF is coordinating the Workforce Development programing at the show, which includes a lunch and panel discussion on opening day, Wednesday, August 17th.

APS22 is excited to be a gathering place for these association and all industry people looking to get back to “business as usual” after the last several years of turmoil.
