We go on to discuss New Zealand’s Pride in Print Awards and the upcoming Real Media Awards, and comment on the atmosphere at Lewis Media Group’s golden jubilee celebrating 50 years, and the products seen at Konica Minolta’s UnPacked Sydney show. We wrap up by getting an insight into the upcoming launch of the HP Indigo 6K+ label press, the sale of Australia’s biggest magazine publisher Are Media, and the The Inkers, an emerging talent program from the VMA.Links:Landa secures lifeline, gets six weeks to find buyerwww.print21.com.au/industry/latest/landa-secures-lifeline-gets-six-weeks-to-find-buyerHP leads race to buy Landa Digital Printingwww.print21.com.au/industry/latest/hp-leads-race-to-buy-landa-digital-printingDigital can printing fuels Onpack’s growthwww.print21.com.au/packaging/digital-can-printing-fuels-onpack-s-growthRollsPack launches high-tech facility in Chinawww.print21.com.au/industry/latest/rollspack-launches-high-tech-facility-in-chinaNZ industry gathers for Pride In Printwww.print21.com.au/events/events/nz-industry-gathers-for-pride-in-printReal Media Awards now open for entrieswww.print21.com.au/industry/latest/real-media-awards-now-open-for-entriesFamily-run Lewis Media celebrates 50 yearswww.print21.com.au/industry/latest/family-run-lewis-media-celebrates-50-yearsKonica Minolta UnPacked roadshow hits Sydneywww.print21.com.au/events/events/konica-minolta-unpacked-roadshow-hits-sydneyHP Indigo to launch AI enhanced label press next yearwww.print21.com.au/commercial/hp-indigo-to-launch-ai-enhanced-label-press-next-yearMajor IVE customer Are Media up for sale
