Graph Expo was noticeably more busy this year than it has been the past couple years. Part of the reason was a surge in attendance by in-plant managers. IPG ran into them frequently on the show floor and at each of the two in-plant lunch events. This was a good sign, indicating that the travel restrictions of the past couple years may be on the wane.
IPG was very busy at the show, moderating an in-plant roundtable, checking out the latest technologies and shooting video of it all. To give you a sense of what the show was like, here are links to several videos we took at Graph Expo.
We examined some of the "Must See 'Ems" (a label indicating the show's most interesting, innovative products, as picked by a panel of experts), and talked with product managers to find out why their technologies are so unique. We also took video during the IPG roundtable so you can see who attended and what they talked about. Click on the links below to see more:
