In this episode Wayne Robinson and Lindy Hughson review yet another busy month in print, as we highlight the new board of the merged PVCA. We consider the limitations of the fee-free TAFE programme.
Print businesses of all kinds are looking for new revenue streams, we analyse the latest report from Smithers, which points to digital packaging print as a sector set for turbo-charged growth, and that discussion leads into an assessment of the upcoming Print21+PKN LIVE event, which is focused on the opportunities in that surging sector. Amplify & Enlarge will run on 9 November in Melbourne, featuring brands and printers who are reaping the rewards of digital print for packaging.
Consolidation in the industry continues, we get an overview of the latest moves, including Platypus and Ovato, Planet Press joining Jefferies Printing, and Avon Graphics' acquisition of Lorimier.
This Big Month in Print also covers the evolving dynamics surrounding wide format print, outdoor media, and a change of leadership in the Outdoor Media Association.
