The London Book Fair has teamed up with PubMatch (co-owned by Publishers Weekly and Combined Book Exhibit) to launch Global Rights 365@LBF: An exclusive offering from The London Book Fair, facilitating year-round rights business for LBF participants.
The partnership will give London Book Fair exhibitors and visitors an online destination to warehouse, manage, promote and transact their intellectual property, from foreign rights to other media rights. Users will have access to the closed Global Rights 365@LBF network in addition to the full PubMatch network of over 125,000 titles.
London Book Fair show director Jacks Thomas says “Global Rights 365@LBF...will enhance the opportunities that exist to foster IP transferring across geographies and formats.” The partnership was announced yesterday at the Beijing Book Fair.
