ATLANTA / LAS VEGAS / HIGH POINT, N.C. – International Market Centers (IMC) kicks off its monthly webinar series “Market Insights” with PANTONEVIEW 2021 – Color of the Year on Thursday, Jan. 14. Participants in this hour-long session will receive 1 CEU credit.

“IMC is excited to partner with the PANTONE Color Institute to offer IMC’s market universe — designers, manufacturer and retailers from the gift, home and apparel industries – with an inside look at trending color choices,” said IMC Chief Customer and Marketing Officer Dorothy Belshaw. “This session will provide participants with inspiration and relevant trend information now and throughout 2021.”

PANTONEVIEW 2021 – Color of the Year will be presented by Laurie Pressman, vice president of the PANTONE Color Institute, on Thursday, Jan. 14 at 4 p.m. (EST)/1 p.m. (PST). Pressman highlights key color trends for 2021 and provides insight into the Color of the Year and how it relates to home furnishings, décor, gift, apparel, lifestyle and all aspects of living. Registration is available here.

The 2021 PANTONE Colors of the Year – PANTONE 17-5104 Ultimate Gray and PANTONE 13-0647 Illuminating – are two independent colors that highlight how different elements come together to support one another. According to PANTONE, these two signify a union of strength and positivity and encapsulates deeper feelings of thoughtfulness with the promise of something sunny and friendly.

IMC’s “Market Insights” webinars present high-level conversations about issues that are currently impacting businesses and allows buyers and suppliers to prepare throughout the year. The series is presented as an extension of programming at IMC’s gift and home markets – Atlanta Market, IMC High Point Market and Las Vegas Market – and offers participants timely, exclusive and actionable content throughout the year.
