The power of transforming our world

In this event, as in all books, we start with a blank page. We dive into its essence to write new lines. Lines of reflection about the best that books bring us and how they can thrive. The world is changing and so are books, which are increasingly expected to be like the world: digital, inclusive, sustainable.

A three-chapter journey that bridges the gap between the here and now of books and its future, putting at the center of the debate the main challenges the publishing industry is facing and the power of books to transform our world and societies.

CHAPTER I: The Future of Publishing in the Digital Age

The digital tsunami has profoundly transformed the literacy scenario, bringing to shore new technologies that have revolutionized the way we read and write. From iPads to Kindles, eBooks to audiobooks, social networks and, more recently, artificial intelligence.

Despite the increasing digital presence, it is in its physical composition, in its original essence, that books have been preserved throughout time. In the form of legacies. Yet, will we allow its discontinuation? Will be there a future in publishing? How to take advantage of AI and disrupt the industry?

Chapter II: From Ecological Footprint to Rethinking Diversity

Climate disruption is one of the biggest crises humanity is facing, requiring a profound transformation of the way we live and business models. The book industry is no exception, where carbon neutrality is imperative for all. How can books contribute to this planetary mission while reinforcing the power of people?

We are more than 8 billion voices inhabiting this planet where thousands and thousands remain unheard. Exploring the path of representation is one of the greatest journeys on the table. Will books be able to transform our world towards the SDGs? What place does reading occupy in the lenses of sustainability and in the mirror of representativeness?
