Market Focus 17,000 Islands of Imagination The London Book Fair 2019 Contact: The National Organising Committee for Indonesia as Market Focus Country at the London Book Fair 2019 Comic Email: [email protected] www.islandsofimagination.id CATALOGUE Comic Publisher: CATALOGUE National Book Committee Foreword Laura Bangun Prinsloo Executive Chair of Indonesian National Organising Committee Celebrating Diversity Indonesia is full of diversity. We have various cultures, ethnicities, languages and religions. From our diversity, comes great richness and strength. This diversity and our multicultural background is reflected in our books—fiction, nonfiction, children’s books, comics—and cross-media products. “Diversity” is a term that can have multiple interpretations, but at its core, it’s all about creating “variety”. Our publishers focus on diversity through ensuring that we offer a variety of perspectives to match a great variety of readers on a global level. Diversity from a global perspective means, readers from various parts of the world want content published that is relevant to them. The future of the publishing industry depends on how prepared they are to serve readers in these emerging economies. Between increased cultural awareness and technological growth, we are able to be more connected than ever before. In the publishing world, we play a key role in weaving threads that hold together the global community by helping to fasten different cultures around the world closer to one another. Just like the future of our world, the future of our industry depends on diversity and intercultural cooperation. Generally speaking, Indonesian publishers have never stopped innovating and deepening their endeavours as they seek to implement the go-global strategy, thereby bringing about quite a few new highlights in books, digital innovations and other cross-media platforms such as films, animations and games. Through this Market Focus Programme at the London Book Fair 2019, Indonesian publishers seek more opportunities and open themselves to cooperate with the world publishing society and to create mutual benefits.
