Print Solutions

The Victor Watson Trophy award is now in its second year. It was launched in memory of Victor Watson CBE DL, to recognise a Young Person of Outstanding Achievement.

It is open to any young person (under the age of 31 at the time of the presentation) employed in the printing industry – which includes the printing supply chain from journalism through all aspects of printing and allied trades such as printing, publishing, manufacturing or operating presses, driving, cleaning, advertising, photography, graphic arts, making ink and recycling paper. The nominator and nominee do not have to be associated with any particular organisation. The recipient will be encouraged to apply for a Printing Charity bursary of £1500.

The trophy will be presented on Tuesday 4 July at a ceremony in London. It is supported by the BPIF, The Printing Charity and The Worshipful Company of Makers of Playing Cards.

The deadline for nominations is Tuesday 20 June 2017 by 5 pm.
