To our members, exhibitors, attendees, sponsors, partners, media, educators, students, and the entire PRINTING United Alliance team: thank you for making PRINTING United Expo 2026 an extraordinary success.
The energy in Las Vegas was palpable. Across every segment of print, we saw businesses investing in their future, manufacturers introducing new possibilities, and a new generation discovering what this industry has to offer. We saw ideas become opportunities and conversations become partnerships. Your participation and enthusiasm made it all possible.
What we accomplished together reaches well beyond three days on the show floor.
The Expo is an essential economic engine for PRINTING United Alliance and the work we do on behalf of this industry year-round. Your support helps fund the expertise, resources, and sustained effort it takes to serve printing businesses and represent their interests.
A strong industry needs a strong association. It takes people who understand your business, recognize the challenges ahead, and work every day to help you navigate them. It takes a consistent presence on Capitol Hill to make our issues heard, build relationships with lawmakers, and ensure that decisions affecting print are informed by the realities of our industry. Having a voice, and building the influence to make that voice count, requires ongoing investment.
That same commitment powers our education and training, workforce development, research, standards and certification, and guidance on workplace safety, compliance, and sustainability. These programs help businesses solve problems, develop their teams, and compete. They also help create pathways for the next generation of printing professionals.
When you support the Expo, you help sustain this work. You invest in an association that brings our industry together, advocates for its interests, and delivers practical support throughout the year. Every exhibitor, attendee, and partner contributes to that shared purpose.
We leave Las Vegas proud of what this community accomplished and energized by what comes next. As we look ahead to PRINTING United Expo 2027, we will keep listening, learning, and building on the momentum you helped create.
On behalf of the entire Alliance, thank you for your contributions, your partnership, and your belief in the future of print. We are proud to serve you and excited about what we can accomplish together.
