We discuss the expected challenges the industry will face in the coming years, and how the public perceives print's environmental credentials. We consider the relationship between Australia Post and the print industry, and how they are able to maintain a positive and professional alliance.

The discussion then moves onto Kellie’s journey, and the factors that motivate her to continue to fight for the print industry.

We wrap up by looking into the changes in the industry, what printers can do to overcome the slump caused by Covid and the merged association's first presentation, which will be at PacPrint.
