Taipei International Book Exhibition is known to be Taiwan’s largest trade fair dedicated to the entire book and publishing supply chain. Industry professionals and buyers will meet in person between 4 and 9 February 2025 at Taipei World Trade Center (TWTC) to explore the latest exciting titles on the market and discuss the recent trends and challenges the sector faces.
Run under different themes each year, the TIBE 2025 edition‘s primary focus will continue to be sticking to the global event’s goal of supporting cultural exchange and literacy. TWTC‘s halls will be arranged into several different areas: *general books, comics, children’s books, digital media, diversity and sustainability*, and dedicated country pavilions. Italy will be a Guest of Honour for the 33rd edition of the book trade fair. A large interactive pavilion will showcase the Italian cultural and book heritage.
Besides promoting the Taiwanese book publishing sector to local and international investors, TIBE 2025 will encourage author-reader collaborations, networking activities and effective face-to-face interactions. Multiple reading events, inspiring dialogues, and in-depth discussions with industry experts and prominent authors will allow attendees to maximise the benefits of visiting TIBE 2025.
