We’re so excited to officially announce that SYP London will be hosting the annual conference this year on Saturday 30th November at Kingston University!
Our theme this year is Publishing Past, Present and Future, in line with the celebration of SYP’s 75th diamond anniversary. We hope to explore the trajectory of publishing over the years, showcasing the positive changes that have been made in the industry, engaging in timely discussions and debates of current industry trends and topics, whilst also delving into the work that still needs to be done to improve the future of publishing. There will be an action-packed day planned of panels, q&a’s, workshops and industry stands for both publishing hopefuls and junior level people to gain insight into the industry or to expand your knowledge further. Plus lots of exclusive bookish goodies on offer and a buffet lunch provided during the day.
We are officially now sold out!
A special thank you to our sponsors for their incredible support: Kingston University, Bloomsbury, Inspired Selection, The Book Trade Charity, Pan Macmillan, BookMachine, CIEP, The Publishing Training Centre, Usborne Publishing, Bookscareers.com and Magic Cat Publishing.
