Graphics of the Americas Expo & Conference (GOA) 2015 showed strong exhibitors and attendees’ presence as it celebrates its 40th year in a milestone celebration.
Produced annually by the Printing Association of Florida, GOA took place at the Miami Beach Convention Center in Miami, Florida from February 26 to 28, 2015 with over 50 educational seminars in both English and Spanish, presented by foremost experts in the industry. GOA seminars spanned a variety of tracks, including Prepress and Production; Management; Design and Creative; Sales and Marketing; Photoshop: InDesign and Publishing; Wide Format; and a variety of free bonus sessions.
WHERE To Print gathered that this year’s GOA hosted the exhilarating Wrap Cup Americas event, a vehicle wrap competition where the “wrap stars“ of the Americas are pitted against each other to wrap a line of exotic Maseratis to win the Wrap Cup Americas competition. The winner took home a prize package valued at $25,000, and the total of all prizes for the competition was over $150,000.
Thankful GOA President, George Ryan expresses his appreciation to participants thus, “year after year, we are humbled by, and thankful for, our many show exhibitors, speakers, sponsors and media partners who make GOA the highly anticipated and successful conference and expo that it has become. The show continues to grow and move with the ever evolving industry, and all are doing the market a wonderful service by educating attendees about the technology available right at their fingertips that will help them thrive both now, and in the future. A special thank you to all, especially those who have become a real part of our GOA family, who return annually to be a part of the action.”
