Women in Print Alliance brought its collective mission of connecting, supporting, and empowering women in the printing industry to life at PRINTING United Expo 2026, held September 23-25 in Las Vegas. Through networking events, meaningful conversations, and opportunities to celebrate women across the industry, Women in Print Alliance continues to demonstrate the power of building a supportive community where women can grow together.

Building Connections on the Show Floor

Throughout the three-day event, Women in Print Alliance maintained a dedicated presence within the PRINTING United Alliance booth, welcoming both current and prospective members to learn more about the program and its growing network of resources. Attendees had the opportunity to connect with Women in Print Alliance representatives, including Director Lisbeth Lyons Black, while enjoying a variety of giveaways, including branded lanyards, tote bags, and Sweeter Cards chocolates by Maple Ridge Farms. The booth served as a gathering place for conversations about the importance of community, professional development, and supporting women at every stage of their careers.

Celebrating Community Through Networking Events

The festivities continued Wednesday evening with the Women in Print Alliance Member Reception, held at the Wynn Chambertin Ballroom. The reception brought members together in a welcoming atmosphere to reconnect with familiar faces, establish new relationships, and celebrate the connections that make the Women in Print Alliance community so valuable.

One of the most anticipated Women in Print Alliance events at PRINTING United Expo each year – the annual Women in Print Alliance Networking Luncheon – brought together women and industry supporters from across the printing community on Thursday, September 24. This year’s luncheon featured keynote speaker Corrie LoGiudice (Corrie Lo), who shared insights on “The 5 Overwhelm Culprits” and strategies for navigating challenges in both professional and personal life. The event once again provided a valuable opportunity for attendees to gain fresh perspectives, share experiences, and strengthen meaningful connections with fellow female leaders in print.

Later that afternoon, Women in Print Alliance hosted its Champions Circle Happy Hour in the PRINTING United Alliance booth, bringing together corporate members and sponsors for an invitation-only networking event. The gathering recognized the organizations and supporters helping advance Women in Print Alliance’s mission while providing another opportunity to foster meaningful industry connections over a Bavarian pretzel.

Strengthening the Future of Women in Print

At the heart of Women in Print Alliance’s presence at PRINTING United Expo 2026 was a shared commitment to building meaningful connections and strengthening the community of women in print. By creating spaces where women can share knowledge, access valuable resources, develop professionally, and support one another, Women in Print Alliance is helping build a stronger, more connected industry. The relationships formed and strengthened throughout Expo serve as a reminder that the value of this community extends far beyond the show floor.
