The 2010 Owners Conference returns to Chicago this fall, enabling attendees to take advantage of two-and-a-half days of educational sessions on topics of specific concern to small commercial and quick printing businesses, immediately prior to the industry-wide programs and exhibits of GRAPH EXPO 2010.

Leaders in this industry know when it's time to move beyond strategy and implement measurable tactics to get the job done. No more talk about how it's always been or what has worked in the past. This conference will deliver a hard-hitting dose of reality and motivation to keep your business on track and headed toward continued success. We want you back in Chicago to Transform Strategy into Action!
