Printing Industries of America (PIA) is seeking entries for the 2015 InterTech Technology Awards. Since 1978, these awards have honoured technologies predicted to have a major impact on the graphic communications and related industries. Manufacturers and suppliers of equipment and software covering any aspect of graphic communications operations are encouraged to enter their technologies at intertech.printing.org by June 1, 2015. An entry discount is available through March 31, 2015. Full details can be found at www.printing.org/intertech.
The InterTech competition is conducted annually by the PIA to identify the technologies shaping the future of graphic communications. To receive recognition, technologies must be genuinely innovative – not just an evolutionary improvement on an existing product. They also need to enable printers to operate more efficiently or offer new products or services. Finally, the technologies must be commercially available, but not yet in widespread use.
Awarded technologies will be highlighted in publications, news releases, presentations, videos, and via a special InterTech booklet sent to printing companies. Winners will receive their InterTech Star before an audience of industry leaders during the 2015 Premier Print Awards Gala at Graph Expo 15 September 13-15 in Chicago’s McCormick Place.
