Visual Impact returns to Sydney, with the wide-format focused trade show taking place at the Sydney Showground in Olympic Park in September 12-14.
The show will run from 10am – 8pm on Wednesday 12, from 10am until 6pm on Thursday 13, and from 10am till 4pm on Friday September 14.
According to organisers Visual Connections, VI Sydney is already 95 per cent subscribed, guaranteeing a comprehensive display of the latest innovations in technology, equipment, materials and media for the thousands of business owners and key decision makers who are expected to attend.
Peter Harper, general manager, Trade Shows & Publications, Visual Connections says the show will expand its focus, with several new initiatives which organisers hope will extend the reach and relevance of the show, and increase its value to visitors.
Harper explains, “As in previous years, the list of exhibitors for the Sydney show includes everyone from the industry’s largest and most comprehensive names, to smaller specialist and niche suppliers, all under the one roof.
“This year, however, we’ll also have a significant focus on the latest innovations in screen printing, alongside more familiar offerings like wide-format, design and MIS, POP, display and expo systems, laser cutting and engraving, and structural and illuminated signage technologies.
“This is something of a departure from recent shows but textile printing is clearly a relevant area for those in the print, sign and display sector, and it makes perfect sense to expand our reach into this area.
“This year, we’re introducing daily breakfast information sessions, giving visitors a head-start on the day by enjoying a delicious and nutritious meal while taking advantage of high-quality education.”
Harper says adding that he expects to confirm topics and open registrations for these sessions within the next few weeks.
“The result is a genuinely comprehensive show combining innovation and information, to help businesses improve their performance, increase competitiveness, creates new revenue streams and plan for their future success.
“We are making it easier for visitors to get to the Sydney Showground, with a morning and afternoon shuttle bus between Homebush and Darling Harbour, and extended hours on the Wednesday evening until 8pm,” Harper says.
