To ensure that print remains attractive to future generations, the industry must listen to what young people expect from their working lives and employers. Since 2017, Intergraf has provided a platform for the next generation of print professionals to share their ideas with the industry. Every year, one outstanding submission is selected by a panel of experts to win the Intergraf Young Talent Award.

Although there can only be one winner, all submissions have a lot of value and should be taken note of by employers in the graphical sector. We present on this page, the top entries from 2024, 2023, 2022, 2021, and 2020. Read on for more insights!
