The Changing Face of Publishing: "Turn Digital Disruption into Competitive Advantage"

Thursday, December 7th, 2017 | 10:30 AM CST

The disruption and structural transformation underway in the global book industry is well known. Major changes include the development of technology which enables digital publishing, distribution and retailing; the entry of disruptive players including Amazon, Google and Apple; the introduction of handheld digital reading platforms and devices; upheavals in the bricks and mortar retailing sector; and the rise of online and social media as important channels for promoting books.

Publishers are being forced to adapt and innovate in order to survive, and work harder to compete globally and deal with the major changes occurring across the industry resulting in changes to the way business is being conducted.
