LtoR: Jane Jackson (Ball & Doggett), Arlo-Cyrus Bruhn (NEO/Valiant Press), Chisato Moriguchi (Advance Press) and Annabelle Radford (working in a private technical college in Sydney) officially named as recipients of the ‘2025 HP Indigo Scholarships’ (sponsored by Currie Group),
Stephanie Gaddin, National Chair of Women in Print Australia, says: “We are thrilled to celebrate the diversity represented in this scholarship intake, with applicants coming from different career stages, different states, and even from outside the industry.”
“This breadth of representation is exactly the kind of future we’re committed to building in the industry. Broadening skills, providing growth opportunities, and enticing those with a leaning to creativity, craft, and engineering technology to find their place with us.”
Arlo-Cyrus Bruhn from NEO / Valiant Press recently completed their apprenticeship in digital prints, and is currently one of the company’s ‘go-to’ operators for toner-based machines and HP Indigo presses. They are keen to build their technical expertise on HP Indigo technology, and complement their existing troubleshooting skills while advancing their technical knowledge and ability to diagnose and solve critical production issues.
Jane Jackson from Ball & Doggett in Melbourne has a longstanding career in print, commencing with an apprenticeship before moving into sales. For her, the scholarship will help her bridge the gap between paper expertise and the technical operation of HP Indigo Digital Presses, so that she can confidently advise clients – particularly those transitioning to HP Indigo technology - on substrate performance and suitability.
Chisato Moriguchi from Advance Press in Perth started her career in bindery, and is now training on the company’s HP Indigo 7600 Digital Press. She has been steadily increasing her skills and responsibilities and sees certification as a ‘turning point’ in her transition from trainee to independent operator. Keen to build skills, improve performance and excellence, and mentor others, Chisato says certification will provide credibility and confidence, and open future growth opportunities.
Annabelle Radford, who works in the Design & Technology department of a private technical college in Sydney, has a strong interest in print technologies. Known for creatively ‘hacking’ consumer-grade devices to experiment and push the limits of office printers to achieve near-professional outcomes, she says certification will help her to teach industry-standard print processes to students, and support her aspirations to transition into industry roles and ultimately start her own bespoke print service.
Marcus Robinson, Director – Operations for Currie Group, adds: "Currie Group is proud to partner with Women in Print Australia to host the training at our state-of-the-art facility in Victoria. Supporting this initiative reflects our commitment to fostering diversity, empowering talent, and providing industry-leading training opportunities that strengthen the future of print."
