Editor’s Letter B
reaking records for attendance, Sign & Digital UK’s co-location with Printwear & Promotion LIVE! saw over two thousand more people attending the exhibition. My own impression at SDUK, talking with many
of the exhibitors and visitors is that this resurgence has been a breath of fresh air in what had been a stagnating enterprise.
With the emergence of a crowd that might not have otherwise visited SDUK, the stars of the exhibition were many of the entry level models that offered prospective businesses a chance to expand their horizons without breaking the bank. Whilst serious print industry machines will always steal the headlines with the new technology and amazing abilities, it is the entry-level models that will attract a larger audience looking to venture into the signage industry.
As I said a fond farewell to Martin Hinchliffe, my friend and mentor, I had the pleasure of welcoming fresh blood within the magazine. Alissia Cliffton, Publication Manager, will be taking charge of the advertising for Sign Update.
Kindest regards,
Jordan O’Boyle Editor
As the new Publication Manager, stepping into the role with both excitement and a profound sense of responsibility, I wish to first express my deepest gratitude to Martin Hinchliffe and the Hinchliffe family.
