Alexandria, VA _ January 3, 2025 The ISA Elite Class of 2025 includes sign and graphics professionals at all levels of their companies, poised to deepen their expertise and connections in the sign and graphics industry.
Each year, ISA names the ISA Elite, 35 young professionals who have demonstrated a commitment to the industry and to their companies. They meet in person at ISA International Sign Expo in the spring and again at ISA headquarters in the fall.
“This program launched in 2015 with a hope that it could be a key component in solving the workforce crisis in our industry,” said Lori Anderson, ISA president and CEO. “It has proven to do that and so much more. Elite alumni have gone on to lead their companies and the industry, taking on important roles with ISA and affiliated associations, serving on committees and on boards of directors. This class has the same leadership potential and our industry will be the beneficiary.
