The Prize is Better than Ever

The 2017 SGIA Product of the Year competition is open with a new facet for the award: pre-show publicity. Judges will evaluate entries at SGIA Headquarters in Fairfax, Virginia, in advance of the 2017 SGIA Expo.

Winners will be announced before the 2017 SGIA Expo!

When you win an SGIA Product of the Year award, the industry will recognize your product as the best new product of 2017. And because of the earlier timeline, you can work your winning status into your pre-show marketing.

The Prize is Better than Ever

Winners will be announced before the 2017 SGIA Expo!

“By completing the judging well before the 2017 SGIA Expo, we’re giving the winning exhibitors the opportunity to publicize their success as they promote their presence at the show,” said Ray Weiss, Digital Imaging Specialist, SGIA. “They’ll also be able to display the coveted jewel trophy at their booths!”

SGIA will follow up its announcement of the winners with a September webinar. And of course, the winning entries will be on display at the 2017 SGIA Expo!
