Speakers will address technical issues related to payment technologies, file delivery, software management equipment and systems, connectivity and other vital technology issues impacting the industry today.

Call for EXPO Educational Session Proposals
APEX issued a Call for EXPO Educational Session Proposals to invite all members and industry experts to submit topics to be added to the agenda. We received nearly 20 submissions, the most APEX has received to date! The Education Committee, with assistance from the Technology Committee, reviewed the proposals based on the following criteria:
- creativity and appeal
- appropriateness of topic
- level of content
- new, cutting-edge innovations not been previously presented
- expertise of proposed speakers and speaker selection related to experience and topics
After much discussion, the committees chose 9 proposals to be represented on the EXPO Breakout Session agenda. All sessions within the three tracks were a result of APEX member and industry expert feedback and involvement. Thank you to those who submitted proposals! We appreciate your involvement and dedication to the association.
There’s something
for everyone at the APEX 2012 EXPO.
