Scott Conway

Co-Founder and DirectorVenture Banners
Scott co-founded Venture Banners with Wayne Bodimeade in 2009, starting the business from his garage with a clear mission to make large-format print accessible to print businesses of all sizes.

Drawing on his background in marketing and buying print, Scott recognised a gap in the market for a trade-only partner that could take the complexity and uncertainty out of outsourcing large-format work.

Together, Scott and Wayne have grown Venture Banners by investing in state-of-the-art production technology, transparent pricing and practical resources that help customers order with confidence, creating a trusted partner that enables print businesses to expand their offering without expanding their own production.
