Meet buyers face-to-face… nothing beats a show

North Island Graphics Media Group is one of North America’s most experienced show and event producers. Since 1986, our shows have been delivering value and results to exhibitors and visitors alike.

Our flagship show, Print World: The World of Shorter-Run Printing, is the largest show of its kind in North America and the largest printing industry show in Canada.

Held every two years at the Direct Energy Centre in downtown Toronto, Print World features the world’s leading brands and top local suppliers displaying their latest products and services for the hottest segment of the printing industry: shorter-run printing.

North Island utilizes its powerful media assets—and a North American-wide promotion program—to drive attendance to the show. Over 8,000 attendees registered for the 2010 event, coming from every Canadian province, dozens of U.S. states and several foreign countries.

Print World has become a showcase event for suppliers selling into this market and into the heartland of the Canadian printing industry. Put a “Sold” sign on your equipment at your booth at Print World… contact us today for an exhibitor’s kit.
