Produced by Ifra this year’s event is the fifth for the Asia Pacific region. Location is the Shangri-La Hotel in Bangkok, dates are April 19-20.
According to Ifra the publishing industry has experienced a whirlwind of change over the past few years. In the competitive onslaught that has provided the internet and mobile, free distribution and compact formats, publishers
