PRINTING United Alliance's Amy Servi-Bonner joins the November 12 online summit as a featured panelist; the Alliance returns as an Education Partner.

Phoenix, AZ - Branded Merch Network (BMN) will bring together leaders and practitioners from print, promotional products and apparel for Automate & Elevate 2026, a free, 90-minute online summit exploring how businesses can put AI and automation to work. Taking place Thursday, November 12, from 1:00-2:30 p.m. ET, the event will feature Amy Servi-Bonner, Vice President, PRINTING AI, alongside speakers sharing practical perspectives on business applications and the changing nature of work.

PRINTING United Alliance returns as an Education Partner, bringing industry expertise and the perspective of print professionals to the conversation.

"People in print, promo and apparel are busy running their businesses. They want to know what's working, where to start and what's worth their time," said Jay Busselle, Co-Founder, Branded Merch Network. "That's the conversation we're bringing to Automate & Elevate. We're excited to have Amy join us and to welcome back PRINTING United Alliance as an Education Partner."

WHEN AI BECOMES PART OF THE WORK

"The most useful AI conversations start with a business challenge: Where are teams losing time, where do customers need better support, and what could work better?" said Amy Servi-Bonner, Vice President, PRINTING AI. "At PRINTING United Alliance, we're helping print professionals build the knowledge and confidence to evaluate those opportunities, with human expertise and judgment guiding how AI is used."

Joining Servi-Bonner on one of the panel discussions will be Eric Granata of PromoPilot and Kavish Soningra of AltOps.
The panel is one of three conversations at Automate & Elevate 2026 exploring how AI is moving beyond experimentation and becoming part of everyday business. Discussions will focus on practical applications, improving customer experiences, creating new opportunities and preparing for what comes next.
