“GRAPH EXPO is the Number One show for us [the Graphic Communications Group] here in North America, so we always look forward to it. We always have some important new-product announcements, so it’s good to make them to the high-caliber audience the show provides. Every time we come to GRAPH EXPO, we’re extraordinarily busy. And we’ve had a great response at the booth this year, with our café tables and conference rooms overbooked from day one.” - Barry Quart, Vice President; Marketing US & Canada, Graphic Communications Group, Eastman Kodak Company, Burnaby, BC Canada

“We’re seeing really a lot of good, qualified folks who are serious about going digital and understand our value proposition. We couldn’t be happier.” - Forrest D. Leighton, Senior Manager, Product Marketing, Production Systems Division, Canon U.S.A., Inc., Lake Success, NY

“The show is full. Busy. There’s a more positive vibe and energy. And a lot of customers are in buying-decision mode, ready to sign contracts. Plus by bringing everything we sell together in a single, bigger booth, the show is paying off by allowing us to demonstrate how we can help attendees print everything from stamps to billboards and show them how digital printing offers specific solutions for a variety of applications.” - Rich Raimondi VP/GM, Graphic Arts Business; Imaging & Printing Group, Hewlett-Packard Company, Boise, ID

 “Océ has come to GRAPH EXPO for the past eight years, and the show gets better every year. It has been very busy from the minute the doors opened, people coming to the booth appear to be well qualified and there are a lot of new faces. GRAPH EXPO lets us get to the whole graphic arts marketplace at the same time, and it’s becoming the premier show in the entire industry. For us, it’s the most important U.S. show." - Sheryl Pattek, Executive Director, Marketing Strategy and Operations, Océ Digital Document Systems, Océ North America, Inc., Boca Raton, FL

“From the start of the show on Sunday, we have seen more traffic and deeper conversations with attendees. Several years ago, the average attendee was looking at digital but less familiar with it. Attendees today understand digital better, understand the workflow, know how they will make money with it and they’re ready to act. And those who are already in the digital print business are looking to reach higher levels of profitability.”

“The Show Company has done a good job of generating overall attendance, which lets us do a better job of attracting them to our booth.” - Barb Anselm, Vice President Marketing Communications, Xerox Corporation, Webster, NY

“The show floor has been increasingly busy day after day, and we’re seeing more interest than ever in wide format. Printing is printing, and GRAPH EXPO is the show where printers come looking for different ways and opportunities to grow their business. We’ve already bought more space for next year’s show. GASC is doing a good job in getting the word out about wide format, and that’s a big help to us.” - Steve Urmano, Marketing Manager, Mimaki USA, Inc.

“We have early adopters within the commercial print space who have had wide and grand format in their portfolio for years. GRAPH EXPO lets attendees learn about and see what we have that’s new in equipment, and software and see it working on the show floor.” - Don Knox, Director, North American Sales, EFI/VUTEk

"Presstek had a very successful GRAPH EXPO. This was a great venue for conducting business. The level of sales activity that we experienced at the show confirmed that mainstream print demand has shifted, which uniquely positions Presstek to address those changing needs with the strengths of our product offerings - fast turnaround, cost effective, high quality and environmentally friendly short-run color printing." - Betty LaBaugh, Public Relations Manager, Presstek, Inc.

We are pleased as we could be by what we heard and saw from visitors to our booth at GRAPH EXPO 2007. The number of orders we received surpassed our forecasts. Everything just came together. The traffic was incredible. Representative from printing companies were prepared to make equipment purchases." - Ralph Abdelhak, Marketing Communications Manager, Screen (USA)

ATTENDEE TESTIMONIALS

"I’ve been to 12 or 13 GRAPH EXPOs and this one is like every year – it’s always exciting and there are always so many changes going on. And the technology…it’s important to keep up with it – it can be overwhelming. GRAPH EXPO helps us keep up to date and able to compete by thinking outside the box.” Stephen Rose, Concord Publishing, Cape Girardeau, Mo

“I’ve come to every GRAPH EXPO. There’s clearly more digital technology and more software at this year’s show, and that’s what I’m looking for. I always get a lot out of the show – the different solutions and new opportunities.” - David Zimmerman, President Zimmerman Printing, Sheboygan, WI

“I’m here for color training and this is a great place to get a really comprehensive set of classes in color management, grayscale – all sorts of things. The seminars have been really good and I’ve learned a lot. I met my goal the first day; now I have a day and a half left to learn and explore. It’s a bonus that the show is going on so I can check out what’s new at the same time.” - Jennifer van Edig, Software Test Engineer, JDF Expert, Graphic Communications Group Eastman Kodak, Rochester, NY

“Our organization is very high on adapting technology to production, and our connection with the customer requires producing a lot of personalized data and that requires a lot of printing horsepower. GRAPH EXPO is where you find out how to do it much more efficiently. It’s where we learn about leading-edge technologies and new-product development that can impact how we do business. No other show gives us all this information – not even close. This is it.” - Thomas Neckvatal, Director, Graphic Services, Securian Financial, St. Paul, MN
