Awards

The InterTech™ Technology Awards were inaugurated in 1978 as a way to honor the development of technologies predicted to have a major impact in the graphic arts and related industries. Printing Industries of America sponsors the awards as a service to the industry in order to spotlight the wide range of technologies that contribute to the advancement of techniques and processes used in the graphic arts.

The InterTech™ Technology Awards have become a solid indicator of significant trends in graphic arts technology; over 80% of technologies that receive an award experience continued commercial success in the marketplace.

All technologies submitted for an InterTech Award will be profiled in the annual InterTech magazine supplement. In addition, technologies receiving the award will be highlighted in a news release, magazine article, an awards gala, and various presentations.
