The best in print will be honoured at the Ontario Printing & Imaging Association’s Excellence In Print Awards Night on Wednesday May 18, 2016 at the St. George’s Golf and Country Club in Etobicoke, Ontario. This is your chance to meet up once again with your peers, make new friends and honour the outstanding accomplishments of the very best in the industry.
Brad Thompson, Chairman of the Printing Industries of America (PIA) and President and CEO of Inland Press, will be the keynote guest speaker. A fifth-generation family-based printing company headquartered in Detroit, Michigan, Inland Press was first established in 1895 and is a publicly traded company that has reinvented itself many times over in an extremely challenging market. His unique perspective on the state of our industry is one that you will definitely want to hear.
Registration begins at 5:30 p.m., with dinner at 6:30 p.m. and the awards at 8:30 p.m. Thompson will give his presentation at 9 p.m. A special thank you to sponsors Heidelberg, Flint Group, Domtar, Sun Chemical and Spicers.
