The idea behind the printing and publishing cluster initiative originated in summer 2004 by four companies within Business Incubator BIOS operating in complementary areas of graphic and web design industry in the eastern part of Croatia.
An informal cluster of these four businesses accompanied by one external partner company was initiated with the main goal of sharing their technology and expertise in order to enable them to offer a wider range of quality products and services with competitive prices on local markets. At the moment of writing the report, the BIOS Printing and Publishing cluster has 10 members with Business Incubator BIOS coordinating and managing joint market efforts.
The Clusters’ products and services offered are: corporate identity development; web design and development; business web applications development; custom-design wall, table and pocket calendars; promotional materials; binding, screen printing, gold printing; two-colour offset printing (books, magazines, science papers, reports, etc.); full colour digital printing (event tickets, invitations, diplomas, etc); continuous form printing (payment forms and orders); 360o spatial indoor and outdoor visualization; business card CDs; promotional CD/DVD recording and editing (textual, photographic, audio and video materials, animations, multicolour CD/DVD printing); large format laminating (B1); outdoor advertising; prismavision advertisement panels; rotapanel trivision scrolling posters; poster panels with internal illumination and parking meter advertising panels.
