Discuss the various aspects of heat press technology. Transfer paper, inks, plastisol transfers, vinyl cutters, printers, commercial usage, durability, suppliers, etc.
I suggest you go to all the shows you can and talk to all vendors. The knowledge gained fro the shows is awesome. I have found the more you learn, the more you want to know. .... JB
If I am in the heat transfer business which show is the best to attend the SGIA one in Atlanta or the NBM Three shows under one roof in IN.
The SGIA show will be much larger, but will not have many of the shirt vendors and other smaller vendors you will find at the NBM show. The NBM show will be much smaller with less to see, but might be a little more targeted to the small businesses.
As mentioned it is best to try to attend both if possible. SGIA always has some great new technology and cool things to see. If I had to choose though I guess I would say NBM. Just my opinion.

Thanks.
I would suggest the ISS show in Atlanta in September. I attended the NBM show a couple of times here in CA, and it seemed like a much smaller show for heat transfer related stuff.
we go to the NBM show every year....and would go to the ISS show if it was closer.
As far as heat transfer stuff, NBM in Indiana had quite a bit. More last year than the year before. But I dont know any different and cant compare it to others. It is because of this show that I gave Ace transfers a try.
ISS always have good selection of vendors. I am going to ISS trade show in Schaumburg, IL next month. This is going to be my fourth attendance. Always find something new and interesting products and methods.

For me location is a consideration.
So where are you located.
We are in west michigan
I always go to NBM Indy show it is the best show for all around in the industry covers alot of stuff.
ISS is Aug 7-9 the other side of Chicago.
I would like to go but time does not allow and its not a fun drive. Even though I am only about 3-3.5 hours away.
SGIA has stuff too but there is lots of large format digital and screen printing going on there so much will not apply.
In Indy you can get hotels right there and just walk to everything, and its not a bad drive.
Booked my hotel 4 months ago!!!
