KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 30, 2012 - (ACN Newswire) - The sixth annual Asian Publishing Convention (APC) commences today at the Crowne Plaza Mutiara, Kuala Lumpur with 152 delegates from 14 countries.
The theme is the trade of content itself beyond borders. The two-day event features 12 plenary sessions by 16 speakers from 8 countries. The industry gurus will share insights on leveraging New Media channels.
Mr. Cyril Pereira, co-chair of APC 2012 declared, "APC 2012 creates the environment for editors to showcase excellent content and publishers to explore cross-border opportunities. APC is a B2B Marketplace to monetize CONTENT and BRAND."
After pioneering Online, Mobile and Digital 'how to' workshops six years ago, the Asian Publishing Convention (APC) moves up the value chain to enable publishers to trade content through archive-buy-sell platforms and cross-border licensing, franchising and joint-ventures - in this first Asian Content Marketplace.
An integral feature of APC is the Asian Publishing Awards (APA). The awards, which cover magazine, book and online integration, received 157 entries from 34 media companies across 8 countries. The 56 finalists will be announced at the Gala Awards Dinner tonight, November 30, at the Crowne Plaza Mutiara Kuala Lumpur.
The B2B Content Marketplace is at the Mezzanine Level of Crowne Plaza Mutiara. It facilitates publishers, editors, solution providers and freelancers to buy and sell content across borders. It features the Publishing Suite, Digi Center and the Freelance Cafe.
