Kasturi Balaji (The Hindu), Chairman of the World Printers Forum, about the aim of the organisation

K Balaji stated: “The aim of the World Printers Forum is to focus sharply on how printed products – largely newspapers – from news media organisations and news media companies can be kept relevant and be sustained into the distant future.

The World Printers Forum seeks to acheve this by addressing all print-related questions and encouraging innovation, product development and productivity. It aims to be the central point of convergence for the news media’s print community.

Participation in the World Printers Forum is free for WAN-IFRA members and we are keen to build a strong community of members who are passionate about the power of print.”
