How does the publishing business look from a global meta perspective? How is digitalization transforming not only trade publishers, but also specialist, academic and educational publishers? And where are completely new business and distribution models being formed – moving beyond the good old book industry? Every year, the „Global 50 Publishing Ranking“ measures the major lines of development in the international book business. To accompany the new edition (please find out more here), a digital conference presents the most important trends.
The „Global 50 Publishing Ranking“ is published by Rüdiger Wischenbart Content and Consulting since 2007. In partnership with leading industry media – Publishers Weekly (US), The Bookseller (UK), Livres Hebdo (France), DIGITAL PUBLISHING REPORT (Germany) and Bookdao (China) – this is not just a list of the world’s 50 leading publishing groups ranked by turnover. With a detailed analysis and fact-filled profiles of all 50 companies portrayed, the digital publication offers an indispensable information package for decision-makers in the publishing business on around 250 pages.
The Global 50 Publishing Ranking and CEO Talk are sponsored by Bookwire.
