In this episode we are talking about doing things differently and standing out as a progressive in your industry with Paul Hewitt and Anand Gilks of Generation Press.
Generation Press is a fourth generation printers and Paul is the fourth generation printer looking to do things differently. A humble visionary and natural disrupter, Paul speaks modestly about how he unconsciously carved a different path. Finding his way back to the family business he instinctively knew he wanted to do it differently. He wanted to do it clean and he wanted to be progressive in an industry that has been set in its ways. Anand Gilk came fresh from uni back in 2013 inspired by the craft and focus on high quality design and collaboration with designers and brands that continue to lead the work.
They are housed in a 16th century farm on the edge of the South Downs. And another excellent example of find your niche, find your people – as well as finding your own carved out space in a long time established industry.
