WHAT’S NEW AT IPR LICENSE? FIONA CARR JOINS IPR LICENSE AS SENIOR SALES MANAGER Fiona Carr

WELCOME TO FRANKFURT!

T

he Frankfurt Book Fair is quite simply the international publishing industry’s biggest trade fair of the year. With 7,100 exhibitors from more than 100 countries, and with around 275,000 visitors during the week, no other event even comes close in terms of size or importance.

Every year in October, Frankfurt draws together key players from around the globe: not only book publishers, distributors, and rights professionals, but movers and shakers from the film and games industries, too. It is the perfect setting for entrepreneurs and experts to do business. So what’s in store for visitors in 2016?

Since 1976, the Book Fair has featured an annual Guest of Honour country, which showcases its book market, literature and culture.

This time it’s the turn of Flanders & The Netherlands. Their promises to be packed full of inspiration.

Elsewhere in the Halls, over 4,000 events will take place over 6 days, including the 30th Frankfurt Rights Meeting on the Tuesday afternoon. This year it’s all about ‘Surprising Successes in Challenging Times’. In the sold-out Literary Agents & Scouts Centre (LitAg), 692 agents from 31 countries will be representing their authors. And on offer in the Business Club, the central meeting place and network-

ing hub, there will be an exclusive range of seminars and special events, with international experts highlighting all the latest industry trends and forecasts.

The IPR License team will, of course, be at Frankfurt as well, this time in Hall 4.2, stand E19. We will be taking part in a number of rights-related events: on the Publishing Perspectives Stage in Hall 6.0, at The Markets Conference, in the Business Club, on the Hot Spot Stage in Hall 6.2, and at the new ARTS+ area in Hall 4.1. Do come by for an appointment, or drop into our stand drinks reception on the Wednesday at 5pm. We’ll be happy to see you! •

Inside Issue 19: Issue 19 of IPR Rights Magazine is distributed at the 2016 Frankfurt Book Fair and at iprlicense.com.

THE NEXT STEPS FOR IPR LICENSE

R

ights and intellectual property are at the core of the publishing business. As an industry, we are getting better at identifying and exploiting the rights we own. We are finding innovative ways to bring our authors’ works to wider global audiences.

In the digital era, licensing opportunities and new types of rights deals are multiplying, and technology can help us take advantage of these new opportunities both quickly and cost-effectively.

That’s not to say that technology can replace personal relationships or build trust the way a face-to-face meeting can. In fact, I believe we value these in-person interactions even more because our workdays are filled with digital communication.

What technology can do is automate enough of the workload to let us focus on building relationships and our business. Specifically, IPR License can take care of the smaller rights deals for you, and give you more time to focus on the bigger rights deals.

Since buying a majority stake in IPR License in April 2016, the Frankfurt Book Fair has made some strategic changes to IPR’s business.

We are taking definitive steps to improve the platform for both rights sellers and rights buyers.

Over the last few months, we have added a number of global publishers to the IPR platform and built a database of over 30,000 qualified rights buyers.

One part of our strategy going forward is to make sure IPR meets

the rights needs of both large and small publishers. Whether you’re a small publisher without a dedicated rights person, or a large publisher with an entire rights department, IPR will work with you to customize our automation tools according to your needs and existing workflow.

Another part of our strategy is to offer targeted information to rights buyers around the world. Our aim is to make it easier for rights buyers to identify titles they might be interested in and to facilitate communication with rights sellers using IPR License.

At the Frankfurt Book Fair this year, we will have more information about the upcoming launch of our permissions functionality. IPR is also in the process of building a roadmap of exciting new devel-

opments on the platform, which we will be ready to share with our membership in spring 2017.

Please come by our stand in Frankfurt (Hall 4.2, stand E19) or to one of our events at the Fair (see page 7) to get to know us and learn more about IPR License.

‘THIS IS WHAT WE SHARE’ T

he Guest of Honour at the Frankfurt Book Fair 2016 is Flanders and the Netherlands, and the official start of the two countries’ presentation takes place on the evening of Tuesday 18th October. Under the motto ‘This is what we share’, the countries will each be represented by a different author at the ceremony.

Taking to the stage for the Netherlands will be the well-known writer, actor and columnist, Arnon Grunberg, while Flanders is sending the youngest Guest of Honour speaker in the history of the Book Fair, 25-year-old poet Charlotte Van den Broeck. The decision to have two authors performing the opening reading together in the form of a dialogue underscores the theme of the Dutch-Flemish presentation: sharing. Grunberg and Van den Broeck will each represent a different generation on the stage.

Earlier this year, Frankfurt Book Fair director Juergen Boos said, “When Flanders and the Netherlands first applied to be Guest of Honour of the Frankfurt Book Fair, it wasn’t clear how great a symbolic effect the joint appearance of the two countries would have. And we had equally little idea that the motto ‘This is what we share’ would present such a wise commentary on current events. Our Guest of Honour this year has attempted a daring venture, with each side asking questions of the other, while at the same time teasing out their common literary and cultural threads. We can look forward to a highly topical, and at the same time deeply moving presentation.”

With no fewer than 70 authors set to take part in events at the fair — half of them from Flanders, the other half from the Netherlands and representing a good cross-section of all genres (fiction, poetry, children’s and young adult literature, non-fiction and graphic novels/comics) — the programme promises to be highly varied and inspiring. It has never been so exten-

sive. As early as last March, events began taking place across Germany with authors represented from Flanders and the Netherlands.

At the Book Fair visitors shouldn’t be surprised to come across a few special features, especially in the Guest of Honour pavilion where, because Flanders and the Netherlands share part of the North Sea coast, a large imaginary beach will be created. At the centre of the pavilion there will also be a theatre where there will be a lively programme of events and performances throughout the day.

At 5pm, the theatre will then transform itself into a pub. This is Happy Hour, when the guests can drink a glass of something chilled in the company of authors, illustrators, translators and publishers from the Netherlands and Flanders, and also witness the day’s big photo shoot.

And there is plenty more going on in the Guest of Honour pavilion.

Publishers from around the world have been asked to bring with them their latest titles from or about Flanders and the Netherlands. In the museum space “This is what we share”, a selection of objects will recount the past and tell the future of the book printers’ art. The book-

shop Land in Sicht offers a choice of 230 Dutch-language titles from various genres which have been translated into German, complementing them with special publications to mark the Book Fair, as well as numerous other items, including postcards. Elsewhere, in the cinema, visitors can choose their film moments from a diverse range on offer. A literary portrait perhaps?

An important short film, or a remarkable animation? Or should they watch a few fragments of films based on novels, made in Flanders or the Netherlands?

The Parade Atelier already appeared to great success earlier this year at the international Comic-Salon in Erlangen. Now, at the Frankfurt Book Fair too, visitors will be able to watch the creation of a comic at first hand. Led by Joost Swarte and Randall Casaer, illustrators and comic authors will work live on the Parade magazine, from the initial sketches to the printed product — with a bit of luck, visitors will even be able to take a copy with them.

So, there is much in store from the two Guest of Honour countries this year. We expect the programme to be both inspiring and educational.

Q&A Daniella de-Nur, DANIELLA DE-NUR PUBLISHERS Tell us a little bit about your publishing house.

Daniella De-Nur Publishers Ltd. was founded in 1988 in Tel Aviv, the hub of Israeli culture. The publishing house is a breeding ground for the conception and production of the finest books as well as unique education projects.

What do you hope to get out of your visit to Frankfurt?

As ever, the purpose of our visit to Frankfurt is to stay abreast with the latest trends in the industry, learn about interesting new projects and of course, promote the rights of our premier bestseller—Secrets of Clay by Rony Oren—already translated into 13 languages. This year our main goal is to find a worldwide English language publisher, as well as presenting the opportunity for a co-edition publisher or distributor.

In terms of rights deals, which of your titles has had the most recent success?

The highly regarded brand A-NO-NI-MA+ was established under the publishing house’s umbrella. This is the home for Rony Oren’s Secrets of Clay™, an international bestselling books series with more than one million copies sold globally and extensive associated merchandizing opportunities including clay and display kits, quality clay boxes and placemats. Particularly successful countries have been Russia, Germany and France.

Why do you think attending international book fairs is important?

In terms of business and contact development, the international book fairs are a cornerstone in the industry’s calendar. Despite budgetary constraints and considerations of environmental sustainability, the experience of meeting people in person, exchanging information and ideas, and nurturing international connections can never be entirely replaced on a virtual level.

When was your company founded and what is your number one goal over the next 5 years?

Our goals at Mims House (2008) are to expand our offerings of science and nature books for kids, and expand into science fiction and fantasy middle grade novels. We’d like to develop partnerships with publishers across the globe to bring kids amazing stories, both fiction and nonfiction.

In terms of rights deals, which of your titles has had the most recent success, where and why?

Abayomi, the Brazilian Puma was published in Portuguese/Brazil last year. This was especially exciting because it supported the work of puma scientists there as they work to educate the public about the plight of pumas. The urban environment has encroached on the puma’s habitat, and the tragic result is orphaned cubs. The Portuguese version gave the scientists a concrete tool in the classrooms.

Which territories would you like to do more business with going forward, and why?

I’d love to tap into any market that needs science and nature books for kids. Our animal biography picture books feature animals with a worldwide reputation. Our other education titles, such as The Read and Write Series, will work for any English-speaking country, or for those countries with English-as-a-Second-Language market.

Q&A Rana DiOrio, LITTLE PICKLE PRESS Tell us about your publishing house.

Our titles will be exhibited in Frankfurt by Children’s Books USA and Foreword Reviews and represented by Eulama Literary Agency, Sylvia Hayse Literary Agency and, of course, IPR License. Our hope is to find publishing partners to whom we may license translation rights as well as audio and other rights. We are also in the market for an unforgettable and critically acclaimed YA novel.

Why do you think it’s important to attend book fairs?

International book fairs are important for several reasons: 1) to perceive and be empathic to others, 2) to gain an understanding of what media children need, 3) to learn and share best practices, 4) to stay abreast of global industry developments, and 5) to meet and collaborate with our partners from all over the world.

Our 2013 title Secret Garden by Johanna Basford launched the adult colouring book craze, and can today be found in 43 languages from Armenian to Tagalog, with worldwide sales in excess of 11 million copies. Aside from the author’s obvious talent, we attribute the success to an uncompromising approach to design and production (the book was almost 18 months in the making) and the power of social media to spread positive messages.

Which international markets are you interested in?

We would like to do more business with publishers in the Philippines and South East Asia. We recognise there is a growing demand for business titles, as well as high-quality illustrated children’s books that are bright, exciting and educational. Our list is an established commercial success in the larger markets of Europe and Asia and we hope to increase our presence in these growth markets too. We are an outward-looking company and we welcome new contact from all parts of the world!

Have there been any recent changes to your rights business?

Everyone at MUP would probably admit that we would like to do more to improve the sales of translation rights for the books we publish, but this is why we work with IPR. I think licensing is an interesting area going forward, with more and more non-academic organisations now seeking out academic content and content itself becoming more granular in size to facilitate the curation of bespoke content packages.

Which territories would you like to do more business with?

Our traditional markets are the UK, the US Europe and India. We are also interested in developing MUP’s reach into Asia, the Middle East and perhaps Latin America.

Why is it important to attend international book fairs?

Book fairs are a good way of doing business with new customers and organisations, as well as exploring ways to develop the business.

Without this opportunity to learn advances in what is a rapidly developing industry, I think a lot of good opportunities would pass me by and I would always be playing catch-up.

Have you seen any changes to your rights business?

We’ve proudly grown from a publisher who only bought rights to a publisher that also sells them. There has been a growing interest in Spanish culture from international markets.

Any successful rights deals recently?

Our most successful title is Fraudbook: What the Social Network Does to Our Lives, a book that is selling extremely well in Spain and Latin America. Soon to be translated and published in other countries, it is a topic that is of interest to a diverse audience.

Which territories would you like to do more business with?

We are very interested in China for its economic and cultural potential. France is also interesting for us because of its similarities to the Spanish culture, and Germany for philosophy books. Finally, England and the United States because these are countries with an impressively growing interest in our topics.
