Epsilon Publishing Group at the Fifth Sharjah Booksellers Conference

Update, 28 September 2026: Publishers Weekly’s subsequent report gives the final attendance as 912 participants from 99 countries.

The Fifth Sharjah Booksellers Conference brought booksellers, distributors, publishers and e-commerce platforms from 98 countries to the Sharjah Expo Centre on 19–20 September 2026, for two days of discussion on the future of book distribution, new markets and international partnerships.

Epsilon Publishing Group attended as the only publishing group from Türkiye participating in the conference — a milestone the team marked as another step in a longer journey: taking Turkish stories further, from Türkiye to the world.

For a Turkish agency built on placing home-grown authors and illustrators in front of international publishers, a room built entirely around the future of book distribution was exactly the right room to be in.
