Chris Cooke has been involved in magazines focusing on the graphic arts sector since 1997 when digital print was in its infancy. "I have always enjoyed being part of this sector and seeing its developments. I am fortunate to work with an experienced and able team of expert journalists and commercial people who share with me the passion for maintaining Image Reports as the leading wide-format digital printing business media brand in the UK"

Lesley has been writing about the changing face of the UK commercial printing industry for 25 years. Having graduated from London University to 'pasting-up' advertisements for Yellow Advertiser Group magazines and spending long hours at typesetters and printers proofing galleys and passing pages, Lesley migrated to writing about the print sector, starting out in the 1980s as a novice reporter on the long gone New in Printing magazine before becoming a news hack. She followed this as news/features editor of PrintWeek (then LithoWeek!) where she also had the dubious pleasure of editing one of the first trade show 'dailies'. For the last ten years she has edited print trade publications for St John Patrick Publishers, where she has edited Image Reports for the last three and a half years.
