Welcome to PublishingConnect! |
| |
|
The current global publishing market (English language) is worth over $250 b and
spans across domains like STM/academic, educational, legal, magazines, newspapers,
etc. Apart from the traditional publishing segments, there has been a meteoric
rise in publishers on the web as well as those dealing with content
needs of the corporate segment like in-house magazines, manuals, brochures, catalogs,
etc. |
| |
| The
publishing industry has been undergoing a major transition at a global scale.
The global economic slowdown has exposed the frailties of a publishing model that
reveled in an environment of heavy consumption and liberal sponsorship (by corporate
and large business houses). Change in consumption patterns have led publishers
to look at digital content offerings (such as ebooks, articles, magazines, etc)
with renewed interest. This transient phase has left publishers looking at new
means to generate revenues, cut costs, and adapt their business models to a market
that is changing rapidly. |
| |
| Publishers
have been externally sourcing their publishing requirements for many years, and
outsourcing/offshoring as a concept has become an integral part of their production
process. Global publishing companies have been offshoring their STM, Educational
and Legal publishing work to countries like India and the Philippines for over
two decades. Publishers in segments such as magazines, newspapers, corporate,
etc. have begun outsourcing as a means of cost reduction. |

| PublishingConnect
is a forum for professionals in the publishing industry. We hope to make it a
powerful network which will enable peers (strategists, analysts and opinion makers)
from across the globe to share their perspectives, best practices and opinions. |
