It’s November and everyone is getting the 2012 budgets ready for next year. At Publishing Perspectives we believe that everyone can benefit from exposure to a publishing culture that isn’t their own — whether it’s a visit to an overseas literary festival (Jaipur and FLIP both sound appealing!), a trip to a book fair in Abu Dhabi, London or Frankfurt, or one of the many international tech conferences. Naturally, one is also always on the lookout for opportunities. With so much focus on the explosive growth in markets in Brazil, Latin America, and Asia, as well as in parts of the Middle East and Eastern Europe, we wanted to know which countries and regions are at the top of your agenda for 2012.
