Introducing ‘CliQ’

PMA (www.pmai.org), The Worldwide Community of Imaging Associations, recently launched CliQ (www.cliqworld.com) with how-to tips, product reviews and monthly photo contests.

CliQ brings extensive changes to the PMA 2011 annual convention. PMA has formed a partnership with the Consumer Electronics Assn. to co-locate CliQ (formerly the PMA show) with the 2012 International CES , scheduled for January 10-13 in Las Vegas. CliQ will feature presentations from well-known photographers, workshops, photo walks and seminars, along with the annual photo trade show.

“[Attendees] will recognize classic convention features like the DIMA Printer Shootout, the DIMA Photo Book Showcase, Retailer Hot Picks, Photographer Hot Picks, DIMA Innovative Product Awards, and the Official Business Session,” notes Ted Fox, executive director and CEO, PMA.
