Printing Industries of America (PIA) and the Technical
Association of the Graphic Arts (TAGA) have announced that the TAGA Annual
Technical Conference slated for March 15-18 in Oklahoma City
“It is with sincere regret that we are forced
to cancel this year’s TAGA Annual Technical Conference, but the health and
safety of our attendees is of the utmost importance,” said Michael Makin,
president and CEO of Printing Industries of America.
“It had been our sincere hope that we would be
able to move forward as planned,” said Jim Workman, vice president of PIA’s
Center for Research and Technology and TAGA managing director. “This conference
relies on the participation of the academic community. When many of our
participating universities began instituting travel bans for their faculty and
student bodies, it became clear that the conference would not be able to
continue without them.”
This will be the first time in 72 years that
the TAGA Annual Technical Conference will not be convened. PIA and TAGA are
currently working to organize a virtual TAGA keynote spotlight. Updates will be
posted at taga.org/conference.
Concerns regarding registrations and exhibitor
contracts can be directed to jworkman@printing.org.
