People and Technology: The future of making books

This year has shown, once again, how technology is vital to the making of books. But while our needs can change in a heartbeat, people are always at the heart of what we do!

As part of Frankfurter Buchmesse 2020, John Pettigrew, CEO of We Are Futureproofs and host of the Talking Through My Hat conversation series, invited Chandi Perera (Typefi), Anna Faherty (Strategic Content) and Nick Coveney (Kobo) to join a lively virtual panel discussion on people and tech in publishing.

• Does tech ever change what we’re trying to do, or just how we do it?
• How do we balance the development of skilled publishing teams with the use of new technologies?
• Where do these two aims align, and where do they not?
• How do we equip our teams to make best use of their skills?
