Frankfurt Book Fair | Hall 5.0, Conference Room “Encounter”
The BISG Rights Committee and Rights Royalty Standards Working Group invite you to a presentation on the updated Proposed Standards for Translation Rights Royalty Statements.
Last year, BISG introduced a research-driven proposal to bring greater clarity and consistency to translation rights royalty reporting. This year, we return with an updated and expanded version shaped by global stakeholder input and practical feedback.
If you work in rights, royalties, or publishing operations, this is your chance to preview the forthcoming standard, ask questions, and help finalize recommendations that can benefit the entire industry.
