Standout Women in Wide Format Take the Stage

(PRESS RELEASE) For the eight consecutive year, throngs of Printing United Expo exhibitors and attendees gathered to celebrate a new class of female industry leaders at the Women in Wide Format Awards ceremony. Hosted by agfa, Durst, mactac, TVF and Zund, the Thursday afternoon gathering at the Future State Theater also honored former Big Picture editor-in-chief Adrienne Palmer, who was invited to MC the event she created eight years ago to recognize female leaders in this industry.

The ceremony coincided with sister publication Screen Printing’s Women in Screen Printing Awards, which Palmer created in 2020 with similar goals. Each program recognizes six female leaders who have advanced their industries through innovation, business success, and philanthropy. All serving in influential positions, these women demonstrate leadership, progressive responsibility, and community awareness.

The winners were chosen by the Big Picture Editorial Advisory Board, comprised of 18 industry experts. Nominators highlighted candidate’s leadership, community involvement, mentorship, awards, certifications, and more.
