Publishing 3.0: Industry Briefing on the Participation in the Bologna Children’s Book Fair 2024

In April, our “Publishing 3.0” team traveled to Italy to participate in the 2024 Bologna Children’s Book Fair. We proudly showcased our e-books and audiobooks in the “Hong Kong Smart eBook Hub”, along with our AI-powered e-book conversion tool. Our aim was to facilitate copyright trading and licensing.

Subsequently, we organized an industry sharing session on 18 May to share our team’s experience at the Hong Kong Pavilion of the Bologna Book Fair. This included our business networking meetings with potential partners and the latest updates on the “Hong Kong Smart eBook Hub”.

We were honoured to have Dr. Elaine Choy, the award-winning author of “The Next Writer Publication Funding Scheme”, and Dr. Sharon Wong, Executive Chairperson (Administration) of the “Publishing 3.0” Steering Committee and Executive Director of the Hong Kong Reprographic Rights Licensing Society, in attendance. They shared their experiences from the Book Fair with the attendees. Dr. Wong also provided the latest updates on the eBook Hub. Their presentations were well received by the audience.
