The ISA International Sign Expo- Virtual launches this Wednesday, April 7 and runs through Friday, April 9. The virtual show offers three packed days full of education sessions, networking opportunities, and a tradeshow floor with vendor booths for attendees to visit virtually.
Here are some highlights of what you can expect at this year’s virtual event!
70+ Education Sessions
Some 75 informative, interactive events, ranging from traditional education sessions to peer-led learning will be available as part of ISA International Sign Expo 2021 -Virtual. The education sessions include four Titan Talks featuring industry leaders and a Game Changer session with a Fortune 500 futurist.
Sessions address the most pressing issues facing the industry, from sales strategies to workforce shortages. They also include casual conversations led by an industry expert, and peer networking groups. Some sessions are sponsored by exhibitors and dive deeply into techniques and tips on specific topics related to that segment of the industry, providing an excellent opportunity to train your team on elements directly related to the equipment you already own or are considering purchasing.
“We have put together a truly amazing lineup of speakers for these events,” said Lori Anderson, ISA president and CEO. “Companies would be wise to take advantage of these many events to train their staffs and provide some inspiration for moving their companies forward throughout 2021 and into 2022. All session are included in the free registration for the event; no other action is needed. We’re making it easy for you to reward and train staff who might not normally be able to take advantage of all the benefits of attending an ISA Sign Expo.”
Titan Talks by Powerhouse Leaders
Four leading voices will join ISA president and CEO Lori Anderson for a series of intimate conversations at ISA International Sign Expo – Virtual. The discussions, billed as “Titan Talks,” focus on the lessons these leaders have learned in the past year, their transformations personally and professionally, and their hopes for the future.
The four “Titans” are:
- Guayente Sanmartin, General Manager of HP Large Format Business
- Harry Patz, SVP & GM at Samsung
- Matthew Shay, President & CEO at National Retail Federation
- Denise Rutherford, SVP of Corporate Affairs at 3M
In these one-on-one conversations with Anderson, the leaders share their strategies for businesses and the industry today. They will inspire and offer insights into the innovations they see just around the corner and an overall enthusiasm for the potential for our industry.
“The past year has been challenging for businesses small and large, and these leaders are no different in facing the sleepless nights, uncertain futures and desire to care for their employees,” Anderson said. “But these discussions will set our companies and our industries on a clear path for the future. I have no doubt that attendees will be inspired to reflect on their own challenges and review their own hopes for their businesses and the industry.”
