Signmaking/printing fair or shows

with the £ strong against the $ i am going to look at visiting the US for shows this year, i attended one in Florida 3 years ago and took one of my members of staff with me and it made Sign UK look like a Church Fete, far more proffesional, lots of free lectures, hands on workshops, and being from England a very warm welcome was received, its worth looking at and costs very little…….

Any spare room in your suitcase Adrian? 😀

Is the show in Florida the one at the Epcot centre btw?

Just registered for SignUK, more for the fact that its a central meeting point for uksb members than for all the exhibits, although Agfa have a stand this year. Still no Europoint stand though, so we can all arrange to meet there at 2 oclock again :lol1: :lol1:

Cheers, Dewi

The U.S show is in Las Vegas this year which is nice 😀

In a few months I think.

They alternate between Vegas & Orlando.

They are BIG, but when I have been all the exhibitors seemed to be BIG too! not many small companies selling useful stuff.
