The print providing industry continues to extend its support to the prestigious PrintWeek India Awards which recognises excellence in the Indian print industry.

Namrta Dhar, national marketing manager at Heidelberg India, said: "Heidelberg India is happy to be associated with PrintWeek India Student of the Year Award as a sponsor. Heidelberg has been the pioneer in setting up Print Media Academies worldwide to address the training and education needs of the graphic arts community."

Dhar added: "Education and right skill-sets are increasingly important in today's dynamic and challenging environment. It is our conviction that training will create human capital for the print industry and bridge the mismatch between supply and demand of trained personnel."

Bhargav Mistry, managing director of Grafica, said: "By sponsoring the Screen Printer of the Year Award, we want to send a message - loud and clear - that screen print can produce innovative work on a number of substrates that are both convention and non-convention in surface and content. That it's not a rival to offset but a complement."  

Priya Iyer, ad sales manager of PrintWeek India, said: "We are very delighted to have both Heidelberg India and Grafica Flextronica on board as category sponsors. It has added an extra dimension to the Awards."
