The Specialty Graphic Imaging Association (SGIA) and Printing Industries of America (PIA) jointly announced that, as of May 1, 2020, the two organizations will officially merge.
SGIA and PIA are together committed to serving the graphic arts community with preeminent research, education, training, events, legislative support, government affairs, health and safety, and other key industry services.
SGIA primarily serves the graphics, industrial and apparel decorator segments; PIA primarily serves the commercial printing segment.
Together, members will have access to services across many channels.
Ford Bowers is elevated to president and CEO of the combined organization. Michael Makin, current president and CEO of Printing Industries of America, becomes executive VP of the unified organization, effective May 1.
The new association name will be announced in the coming weeks, as will the combined board of directors.
“As convergence increasingly continues in our industry, this newly-formed entity with PIA is the logical progression of our long-standing history together,” said Bowers. “SGIA acquired NAPCO Media in 2019, bringing the industry’s leading media company under our umbrella. Now with PIA, we can provide even more streamlined services across all market segments and in one easily accessible location. Together, we house the most renowned thought leaders, events, and programming in the printing and graphic arts community.”
“PIA is thrilled to join forces with SGIA, combining resources to serve every segment of the printing industry,” Makin added. “Pooling the extensive talent of both organizations, along with the media expertise of NAPCO Media, is a game-changer.”
In addition to collaborating to produce the PRINTING United Expo and Conference, SGIA and NAPCO Media recently partnered with PIA and its affiliates to launch a resource channel dedicated to providing the printing and graphic communications industry with up-to-the-minute news and resources on COVID-19 and how to navigate the latest information about the pandemic.
The COVID-19 Resource Channel continues to serve the industry with this critical detail.
The companies will now work together to continue offering these essential resources and services.
