HAN e-Newsletter Issue March 2009
This is the last issue of eNews for Heidelberg's current financial
year. One to remember and then one to forget. April brings a fresh
start and while the economy is no better, we are at least prepared
for leaner times having made the necessary adjustments during
2008/09 as things deteriorated and have hopefully bottomed out.
On a brighter note, the Heidelberg Women in Print events took place across Australia in March. Almost 400 women from all walks of life in our industry attended. Now 3 years young, the initiative has proven itself to be downturn proof! Thanks to our major sponsors Bluestar Printing Group and GEON for their continued support and also to all other sponsors that contributed along with the women who attended and made the evenings a huge success. See the WIP item in this issue for more and look out for the WIP breakfast at Pacprint.
With all the negative commentary about it's easy to forget there are still plenty of opportunities out there. While the pie is smaller, someone still has to eat it, and it may as well be you. Now is not the time to lose your appetite. It's with this sentiment in mind that we approach Pacprint - only 46 sleeps away. We urge you to make the effort to attend. It's the show case for our industry and a terrific opportunity to keep up to date on technology and industry trends. Suppliers will be there in force and for our part while we have significantly tightened our belt we have found a way to do more with less. Find the time, spend the money, come to Melbourne and network with your industry peers - lift your spirits, learn a little, discover something new, make plans for the present and be prepared for when the good times return.

Enjoy the read!
