Graphic design conference recommendations

[cutgrs930]

I've got an open ticket to attend a few conferences this year (provided by the company I work for). I've attended shows in previous years that relate to marketing and branding but I'm trying to find one that more specifically focuses on graphic design trends, new ideas & techniques etc.

I end up spending so much time in the office and, since I'm the only designer in the company, I feel like I need to get some more exposure on what is going on in the industry. Any recommendations based on experience or otherwise on some conferences or tradeshows that may be beneficial to attend?
