The age of industry business and the succession plans of their owners is the subject of a snapshot survey from the Printing Industries Association of Australia (Printing Industries).
The new survey forms part of the Association’s succession planning and industry exit strategy options currently being developed.
Printing Industries National Manager for Policy and Government Affairs, Hagop Tchamkertenian (pictured), said the 90 second survey was part of research on industry business demographics, in particular the age of businesses and the extent of related succession planning.
“We are seeking data on the degree of family ownerships, their business sectors and the age at which owners believe they may want to pass their business on,” he said.
“It is also important to know whether or not they currently have a succession plan in place.”
The survey is open until Friday 5 July 2013 and can be accessed via this link.
