About PrintMedia Management Magazine

The leading publication for the UK’s entire Print Media Community

2005 was the year that saw PrintMedia Management, the magazine at the heart of the print media community, go from strength to strength.

With continuing top quality reporting and analysis of the major technology and issues in the industry, the magazine has built still further on its position as the title that print media professionals, whether in publishing, creative or corporate environments, turn to first for news and key decision-making information.

We know that because our readers and advertisers have told us so – check out some of their comments across the page. It serves to underline PrintMedia Management’s pre-eminence in every area where print media is produced and distributed.

The magazine has been backed up by our inaugural Quality in Production Conference & Awards, held at Chelsea’s plush Stamford Bridge venue, where PrintMedia Management brought together a raft of top names from both sides of the Atlantic to discuss the burning issues and to recognise excellence and innovation across the print media firmament. You can expect us to build on that success, with more such events backed up by insightful editorial content through our Quality in PrintMedia campaign.

We’ve also added to our core team of experienced journalists, with the arrival of Gareth Ward as Editorial Director, overseeing PrintMedia Management and our sister title, The Print Business, which was launched to great acclaim during 2005. Jonathan Levy continues to play a key role as Consultant Editor and will be looking to maintain his high profile speaking and moderating schedule at industry events around the world.

As Editor I will be focused on keeping our editorial standards at the same high level for which the magazine is renowned, while ensuring PrintMedia Management keeps its finger on the pulse reporting the latest trends, the best applications and the next big things in print media.
