A friendly hello from the Cape Town Book Fair blog to remind publishers that there are only five business days left to take advantage of the CTBF’s “early bird” booking discount of 2.5% on all stands. The deadline is 31 Jan – and the last working day before then is next Friday, 29 Jan. Hurry to get your registration and booking in!
In other CTBF news, the Fair has announced that Friday, 30 July 2010, its first day, will be a dedicated trade day, exclusively reserved for publishers and trade visitors as well as institutional buyers. It will further arrange “matchmakings” to introduce interested parties to each other and stage seminars addressing hot topics of the trade.
As another “First Time”, all exhibitors can now register their exhibited titles from 2008 onwards on our website, so as to promote them to potential buyers at an early stage.
Finally, together with the Goethe-Institute and other partners, the CTBF has committed to renewed efforts to ensure that more publishers from other African countries will exhibit in 2010. The popular public programme will remain in place, and, last but not but least, a much-improved shelving system for exhibitors is in the works.
More updates soon!
