Following its worldwide debut, the PRINTING United Digital Experience segued into apparel-focused education and product demos for its second day on Oct. 27.

On Feb. 23-25, the industry will gather in Scottsdale, Ariz., for the annual THREADX conference, powered by SGIA. While it is billed as the event designed by and for apparel decorators, it goes far beyond just the traditional screen print world.

Following a long-standing annual tradition, SGIA’s Congress of Committees convened on January 7-8, 2020, in Phoenix, where representatives from across the printing industry met to discuss strategies, trends, and opportunities for the industry for the coming year.

In “Scaling Responsibly: When/How/Why to Buy Your First, Second, Third, Fourth, or Fifth Automatic Press,” Justin Lawrence, owner and operator of Oklahoma Shirt Company, will focus on the ins and outs of how you should scale up your screen printing shop.

SGIA opened registration for the third installment of its apparel conference, THREADX (February 23 - 25, 2020; Scottsdale, Ariz.). Designed by SGIA’s Apparel Decorators Committee, THREADX takes a higher-level look at the industry, equipping attendees with ideas and strategies to take their businesses to the next level.
