Hello Subscriber,

Our South Asian readers should be getting ready to send in their entries for the Pentawards 2010. Over the last few years we have seen winners from Korea and Japan but the rest of Asia does not seem involved in this particular excercise in innovation. Local stories include those of Parle Agro’s expansion plans and our preview of the India Packaging Show-BulkPack in Hyderabad which is scheduled from
9 April 2010.

Both weekly email newsletters and our analog products reflect the sustainable energy and creativity of the subcontinent's fast growing publishing, printing and packaging industries. Do check out our three blogs as well: Print Asia, Content and Media and the Print Experts blog.
