The Printing United Alliance and Print and Graphics Scholarship Foundation (PGSF) have tied up to organise a full day for students to experience the 2025 Printing United Expo. At the expo this year, the day started with greeting students by industry professionals including PGSF Board Members Teresa Campbell, PIA MidAmerica, and Jules VanSant, Bubble& Hatch/Two Sides North America, Mark Bohan, and Konica Minolta/TAGA, along with Lisbeth Lyons-Black and Ford Bowers, Printing United Alliance. All addressed the group of students and instructors before heading onto the show floor.
There were 33 students with their instructors from California Polytechnic State University, Clemson University, Ball State University, Pennsylvania Western University, and Ferris State University treated to private booth tours with Landa, EFI, Konica Minolta, HP, PUA Apparel Zone, and iLearning in the PUA Knowledge Center. Students learned about new technology and how it is used for printing packaging, stickers, bags, books, and more. They also learned about educational resources during the iLearning presentation. Plus, they received “fun swag” from the vendors representing the many facets of print. PGSF plans to hold its fourth consecutive Student Day event October 22-24, 2025, at the Printing United Expo in Orlando, Florida.
