Discussions with Asian publishers
Every year, we select a topic in the publishing industry that needs to be talked about here and now, and organize a Roundtable for publishers from around Asia to discuss it together, and ‘Asian Publishers Forum’ for in-depth discussions with the public.
Asia Book Awards
Publishers from five Asian regions collaborate to select four “Best Asian Books of the Year” and showcase the achievements of Asia’s publishing culture to the world.
Diverse experiences of Korean publishing culture
To learn about the present and future of Korean publishing culture, Asian publishers visit leading Korean publishing houses and bookstores to share their experiences in the field.
Books to books and people to people
‘Business Meeting’ provides Korean and Asian publishers with the opportunity to introduce Asian and Korean books to each other and to other countries.
