Tickets for the 2024 ProPrint Awards have sold out, with this year’s event also reporting record attendance and sponsorship.
Taking place on Friday 25 October at Shangri-La Sydney, the ProPrint Awards celebrate and honour excellence in the Australian printing industry.
This year’s awards include the Printer 50, Supplier 50, Emerging 50, Industry Achievement, Outstanding Achievement in Sustainability, and the inaugural Geoff Selig Award.
The highly coveted Printer 50, which received a record number of nominations this year, is a peer-voted award recognising the senior leaders and innovators of the Australian printing industry.
The Emerging 50 recognises rising stars from all parts of print with five years or less experience. This includes graphic designers, prepress operators, production assistants, post-press supervisors and finishing specialists as well as employees responsible for distribution, sales, administration and account management.
The Supplier 50 recognises those who service and supply the industry and people committed to providing quality service and advice. They are collaborative in their work ethic to find the best solution and must have proven to have gone above and beyond to get the job done. Recipients are judged on the quality of their submissions and industry achievements over the last 12 months.
Now in its third year, the Industry Achievement Award honours an industry legend with more than 25 years of experience. The recipient of the Industry Achievement Award will have made a significant contribution to the industry beyond their own business.
The Outstanding Achievement in Sustainability Award is awarded to a company that is undertaking sustainable practices within their organisation, using sustainable materials or has achieved specific sustainability benchmarks or improvements over the last 12 months.
This year, to commemorate the contribution of former IVE Group chairman, Geoff Selig, the inaugural Geoff Selig Award, which includes a $10,000 Scholarship, will also be presented.
Geoff tragically passed away earlier this year and this scholarship is dedicated to his passion for encouraging emerging talent within the industry, and his desire to see people grow and thrive as well as the enjoyment he received from seeing people develop and succeed. All finalists for this year’s 2024 ProPrint Awards Emerging 50 category are eligible to enter to win the inaugural Geoff Selig Scholarship.
