PUBLISHING IN THE EUROPEAN NEIGHBOURHOOD
Presentation and discussion at Frankfurt Book Fair 2013

Date: October 10 (Thursday), 17:30-18:30
Venue: Frankfurt Book Fair, Forum Dialogue, hall 5.1 A122 Exhibition site
Organized by: Next Page Foundation (Bulgaria) in partnership with Publishers Forum-Lviv (Ukraine), Armenian Publishers Association and Georgian Publishers and Booksellers Association

The Book Platform project of Next Page Foundation presents and discusses ground-breaking research on the book industries of Armenia, Georgia and Ukraine at Frankfurt Book Fair 2013

The globalization of the book trade is discussed mostly with regard to the most powerful, plus some emerging markets like Brazil or China. But obviously, the many smaller countries, and those on the peripheries from the centres of globalization, look at a challenging future as well. Local publishers and booksellers have to struggle with a difficult economic environment; often enough, a strong neighbouring country competes through regional exports for a culturally fragmented local audience. At FBF this year we present and discuss pioneering data on the book and translation sectors of three countries of the so called European Neighbourhood area: Armenia, Georgia and Ukraine.

Speakers: Annetta Antonenko, director of Calvaria Publishers (Ukraine); Nerses Ter-Vardanyan, advisor at the Ministry of Culture (Armenia); Rüdiger Wischenbart, consultant, Content&Consulting (Austria); Zaza Shengelia, Diogene Publishers (Georgia)

Moderated by: Yana Genova, Next Page Foundation (Bulgaria)

The event will be followed by a reception. Languages: English and Russian
