Attendee registration for the free online virtual preview of GRAPH EXPO 2010 is now open. As its name implies, “GRAPH EXPO 2010: A Virtual Preview” offers graphic communications professionals an exciting sneak peek at all that the GRAPH EXPO show in October will have to offer. The Virtual Preview is scheduled for August 19, 2010. GRAPH EXPO, themed “The Next Generation of Print,” the year’s largest graphic communications exhibition and conference in the Americas, will take place October 3-6, 2010, in Chicago’s McCormick Place South.
Sponsored by American Printer magazine, GRAPH EXPO 2010: A Virtual Preview will feature an interactive tour of the new equipment and products to be found at the show in October, as well as opportunities to network live with industry experts and peers from across the Americas. “We are always looking for ways to increase the value and benefit for GRAPH EXPO attendees,” explained Ralph Nappi, President of the Graphic Arts Show Company (GASC). “As the technology now allows, we think a “virtual” look at the show prior to Chicago will provide a unique opportunity for attendees to explore the latest new products and technologies, collect some information ahead of time and make plans for how they will work the physical show, even make booth appointments, so they will be well-prepared when GRAPH EXPO comes around in October.”
On the day of the Virtual Preview, August 19, registrants will visit a designated URL through their Web browser that will launch a page that “mirrors” the lobby of the physical show where a video on the Jumbotron screen will welcome and explain how visitors can access the different areas of the online event, including the virtual Exhibit Hall; the virtual Auditorium, featuring a multitude of educational sessions; and, virtual Networking Lounge with scheduled featured topic discussions in five live chat rooms. Because GRAPH EXPO will host visitors not just from the English-speaking Americas and the Caribbean but also Mexico, Latin America and the Dominican Republic, visitors to GRAPH EXPO 2010: A Virtual Preview will have the option of participating in the online event in English or in Spanish.
