The 2016 Premier Print Awards opened for submissions in February, and all of us at PIA headquarters are excited to see what printers around the world have produced over the past year.
Often referred to as “The Oscars of the Industry,” this international competition brings together printers from around the globe to have their pieces meticulously judged by our panel of industry experts. Together, our judges have over 100 years of industry experience and will thoroughly examine each piece down to the last drop of ink.
Now in its 67th year, the Premier Print Awards prides itself on honoring every deserving company no matter their size; from the mom-and-pop shop to the million dollar franchise, every organization has their fair shot at the prestigious, coveted Benny statue.
Recipients of the Premier Print Awards benefit from substantial industry exposure. Winners are announced to a list of over 800 industry media contacts and included in the PPA Supplement that is available at the Premier Print Awards Gala as well as the Printing Industries of America GRAPH EXPO booth.
Winners are also invited to attend the Premier Print Awards Gala featuring the InterTech™ Technology Awards, where the Best of Show winners collect their Benny statues. During this event, print’s biggest winners gather to rub elbows and show off their winning pieces.
Shortly after the results are announced, self-promotion kits are mailed to help you highlight your win. As a recipient of a Premier Print Award, you have access to a pre-drafted press release and Premier Print Award logos. By prominently displaying your statue, certificate, and logo, you let the whole world know that you are the best of the best in print!
