In this episode from the industry's podcast, industry insiders Wayne Robinson and Lindy Hughson dissect the big stories, issues and trends emerging in ANZ print over the month of March.
We discuss TMA’s entry into heatset web with the acquisition of Spotpress, and analyse IVE’s large half year revenue surge to $500m. We then assess how print associations are working to attract young talent to the industry, and reveal some positive developments for the print industry in the AusPost saga.
We also review Reacon’s acquisition of MMW3Degrees, Opal's investment into flexible corrugated cardboard packaging, further developments in recycling, and the continued move to environmental sustainability and responsibility.
Lastly, we remember the contributions to the industry made by pre-press pioneer John Coote, who has just passed away.
