There are few inventions in the history of modern civilisation as important as the printing press.

A lot has changed over the years of course, but there is still abundance of printing and publishing houses around the world and of course, here in Ireland.

Joining Bobby for this week’s Industry Review were:

  • Lisa Coen - Publisher and co-founder at Tramp Press
  • Michael O’Brien - Founder and publisher of O’Brien Press
  • Claire Hennessey - co-founder and publisher at Banshee Press
