3 ISA ISA 2019 ISA (International Sign Association) Expo 2019 will be held at the Mandalay Bay Convention Center in Las Vegas (April 24-26), it alternates locations each year, between Las Vegas and Orlando. FLAAR-REPORTS has been attending ISA for over sixteen years, since ISA is one of the major expos in wide-format digital printing. Both Las Vegas and Orlando are great venues for trade shows, they airport is relatively near the expo center area, many tourist spots to see and restaurants to enjoy while you are at the expo. Many visitors from different parts of the world attend ISA trade show, we have observed that the majority of attendees are from the US, in second place is the Latin American audience, and in third place: the rest of the world. FLAAR-REPORTS focuses its study, investigation and evaluation on UV-curing, solvent, and textile printers; as well as inkjet inks, media and substrates, and finishing equipment.
