Sharjah Book Authority (SBA) is once again spearheading a delegation highlighting the emirate’s vibrant cultural scene and efforts aimed at assisting authors and illustrators as a highlight on the industry calendar.
Increasing the creative and innovative capacity: “Under the guidance of Sheikha Bodour Bint Sultan Al Qasimi, Chairperson of SBA, and in collaboration with Sharjah’s cultural institutions, our participation at BCBF features a diverse programme showcasing the many great things that define our Emirate and strengthen our publishing industry,” said Ahmed Bin Rakkad Al Ameri, CEO of SBA, in response to Sharjah’s commitment to enhancing global culture and empowering the local publishing industry.
“Our goals are to expand our assistance for publishers and translators, create new relationships, and strengthen our partnerships with prominent children’s book business members.
