WFI: What made you decide to attend this year's Expo?
Seney: As a long-time member of PRINTING United (formerly SGIA) we have always found great value in the size of their trade shows, especially now that the content has been expanded to include the additional aspects of commercial printing.

WFI: For returning attendees, what brings you back?
Seney: This event always gives us an opportunity to see new and innovative products and learn how the advancing technology can fulfill the needs of our existing and prospective clients.

WFI: What products, brands, or services are you most looking forward to seeing?
Seney: This year we have an expressed interest in hybrid printing equipment acquisition, as well as research the developing textile production capabilities.

WFI: How do you plan and make the most of your time at the Expo?
Seney: We will be travelling as a group of three to get an overview of the present climate of the current equipment and capabilities, with the goal of purchasing what best suits our needs. This show also allows us to investigate the many new media and substrates that are continually being developed to expand our market reach.

WFI: How do you hope attending will impact your business/career moving forward?
Seney: This trip, along with specific travel to key manufacturers facilities and their current users, will ultimately shape the decision we make going forward.
