Fellowship Programme
In the run-up to the Frankfurt Book Fair, this prestigious programme focuses on information exchange, professional dialogue and the creation of networks between young international publishers.
First launched to mark the 50th anniversary of the Frankfurt Book Fair in 1998, the Frankfurt Book Fair Fellowship Programme provides information and networking within the international publishing world. Nearly 200 participants from more than 50 countries have gained so far from this experience.
The Frankfurt Book Fair Fellowship Programme gives a deep insight to the German book world and brings the Fellows to important centres of German publishing, such as Frankfurt, Munich or Hamburg and Berlin. Publishing professionals provide an overview of the German book market and pass their career experiences on to the Fellows.
Annual reunions of former Fellows at the Frankfurt Book Fair keep the Frankfurt Fellows network up.
Interested candidates can actively apply for one of the 16 sponsored Fellowship places. In addition, an international advisory committee proposes candidates and makes recommendations.
