Events and Education

APPA orchestrates a number of online and in-person events each year to drive engagement between APPA members and promote the growth of the promotional products industry. These events include trade shows, webinars, factory tours, gala dinners, professional development seminars and local networking opportunities.

While some events are open to the entire industry, invitations to selected events are only extended to APPA members as an exclusive benefit of membership to the Association.
