Byte the Book’s last event of the year, sponsored by the Publishers Association, looks at the rise of independent publishers.

Discussion: Independent publishers have been transforming the publishing industry in recent times, by winning prizes and selling more books to more consumers in innovative and disruptive ways. Join us and a panel of experts as we discuss how they are changing the book market.

Speakers: Emma House (The Publishers Association) will chair and her speakers will be: Jasmin Kirkbride (Endeavour Press), Nicholas Cheetham (Head of Zeus), Sam Jordison (Galley Beggar Press) and Aimee Falon (Knights Of).
