Cheers to 70 Years: PIM Celebrates a Milestone in 2026
In 2026, Printing Industry Midwest (PIM) proudly celebrates 70 years of serving and strengthening the print industry. This milestone marks seven decades of advocacy, innovation, and collaboration on behalf of our members and we are just getting started.
Since our founding, PIM has served as a collective voice for the printing and graphic communications industry, representing member companies through government advocacy, sharing critical industry research and data, and fostering meaningful connections through events, peer groups, and education. Together, we have navigated change, embraced innovation, and elevated the value of print across the Midwest.
As we honor our past, we are equally focused on the future. The next chapter of PIM is smart, sustainable, specialized, and seamlessly connected designed to support our members as the industry continues to evolve. One thing remains certain: print is not going away, and neither are we.
Be sure to watch for our January edition of The Loupe, where we will share more highlights from PIM’s history and the people who helped shape our journey. A special thank you to Karen Hoffbeck from Shapco for designing our 70th anniversary logo.
Thank you to our members, partners, and supporters for being part of this legacy. Join us in celebrating 70 years of PIM and the future we are building together.
