In this episode from print's podcast, industry insiders Wayne Robinson and Lindy Hughson dissect the big stories, issues and trends emerging in ANZ print over the month of April.

We discuss recent developments at AusPost, which are turning positive print and mail, we review the non-stop rise of digital outdoor media and assess what it means for outdoor print, we consider the factors behind the recent closures of newspapers and of trade label printer Foxcil. Contrarily, we review the promising capital investments into print, and the return of industry exhibitions with interpack in Dusseldorf, Visual Impact in Sydney, and Fespa in Munich all taking place in May.
