Andreas Tietz Editor Der Druckspiegel / PrintMirror |
Dear reader,
in the past week it was especially the major press manufacturers that captured attention: Heidelberg has announced improved profitability and also KBA believes it is on track and intends to pay a dividend again in 2016. Meanwhile, the staff of KBA Mödling is fighting – largely ignored by the industry – for their jobs, because the corporate restructuring actually is a shrinking and will cost thousands of jobs. However, positive signals come from the digital printing industry with innovations and interesting installations. Last but not least, the industry is looking ahead at the upcoming Ipex 2014 in London to provide an indication for how the future looks. The latest news about this event can be found here in our newsletter and as always, on our Printmirror | Druckspiegel website. Sincerely, 
|
|
|
PS: The next issue of Printmirror | Druckspiegel will be published on March 21st and completely in English. The advertising deadline is February 17th. The issue will have extra circulation at: IPEX, InPrint and Lope-C. |
