Three days for conducting book business

Over 17,000 publishers from 40 countries come to FIL looking to make new business, develop commercial opportunities and buy and sell rights.

The Spanish-language publishing industry is strong, varied in content and authors from all realms. Key players from this market as well as other language markets take part in FIL Guadalajara.

Attending FIL as a book professional offers you the opportunity to meet genuine business partners, at the same time that you take part in a wide academic, cultural, literary and formation program.
