The event details

Most book publishers still produce books in the same way they did five or even ten years ago. Anyone starting a new publishing company in 2020 could do well to challenge this and not simply accept ‘this is the way we’ve always done it.’ But what can established publishers learn from this fresh approach?

Ken Jones invites us to rethink how we work by looking at some of the new and emerging tools and services that can help book publishers today. From cloud storage and better communication to ideas and new methods for document creation; from page layout to image manipulation and illustration though to proofing and commenting. Even sharing of advance copies, exporting and publishing can be refreshed.
