It is one of the densest networks in the world;\n67\,646 new titles and new editions published;\nLiterature\, as well as comics (including Manga) and children’s books are the driving forces of the market\, even if all sectors are performing very well;\nNearly 10\,000 publishing structures in France;\nAfter two historically strong years\, digital book sales are down by 4% vs. 2021\, but up by 11% compared to 2019;\nOverall digital book sales in publishing are lower than in other markets\, mainly because it is so easy to buy a printed copy;\nStrong evolution of the “audio” market with the emergence of platforms in France;\n20% of films released in France are book adaptations;\nFrance is a very “open” market (more than 18% of new releases are books translated from a foreign language);\nFrench is the second most-translated language in the world after English (17\,000 titles translated in 2021)\n\nCelebrating 50 years of NDWBF!\nThe 31st edition of New Delhi World Book Fair (NDWBF)\, held for the past 50 years\, is a major calendar event in the publishing world. NDWBF 2023 is scheduled from 25 February to 5 March 2023 in newly constructed Halls 2-5 GF at the centrally located Pragati Maidan\, New Delhi. The Fair is organized by National Book Trust\, India\, an autonomous organization of the Government of India under the Ministry of Education in collaboration with India Trade Promotion Organization. Today\, Indian publishing stands poised at significant crossroads towards the path of growth. NDWBF offers the exhibitors a unique opportunity for business with this growing book industry. It is also an ideal venue for promoting titles\, co-publication arrangements and trade. Besides the many literary and publishing conferences and programmes that are organized during the Fair\, it also opens up a gateway to the publishing and intellectual world of South Asia. The Fair attracts participation from major publishing houses across the globe. In 2021\, the Fair was organized virtually and the platform had more than 2.8 million hits\, visitors from 70 countries across the world\, 150 Indian Exhibitors and about 15 Foreign Exhibitors.

SUMMARY:A Night of Chefs & Ideas
DESCRIPTION:Debate and dialogue are the bloodstream of open\, democratic\, robust societies. Shared ideas and diverse viewpoints can invigorate\, transform\, build bridges. Find solutions to the most intractable problems. \nCommitted to this ideal\, the Night of Ideas is a unique platform that was initiated in 2016 during an exceptional evening in Paris\, when foremost French and international thinkers were invited to come together to discuss the major issues of our time. Since then\, the Night of Ideas has grown to become a prestigious fixture on the international calendar. \nHosted across 200 cities\, 100 countries\, and 5 continents. From Paris to New York. Fiji Islands to New Zealand. Seoul to Shanghai. New Delhi to New Mexico. The Night of Ideas brings together front-line minds interconnected by a common purpose — on one day\, to celebrate the power of thought. \nThis year\, the theme is intriguingly titled More? and the Indian edition of the Night of Ideas will be focusing on the crucial\, fundamental\, and fascinating world of food in all its dimensions: the pleasure\, the politics\, people\, palates\, plurality. And the all-important questions of equity\, sustainability\, and security. \nA few facts to indicate the scale of what’s at stake: India is the second largest food producer in the world. Almost half of India’s 130 billion people\, that’s close to 700 million people\, are engaged in farming. 67% of which are women. Yet\, while they feed the country and keep us safe\, they add only 18% to the GDP\, and 76% of farmers want to give up farming. Women — the spine of all of this — own only 2% of the land. \nSo how can these inequities be corrected? Are GM crops the route? Or are organics the answer? How can we\, as consumers of food\, make the food chain more  robust? How can Indian agriculture become India’s greatest success story? \nAnd what of its rich and diverse cuisines. The exhilarating stories\, spices\, and history of food in India? \nA Night of Chefs & Ideas will bring together the kaleidoscopic story of food in India – with French accents. \nChefs. Experts. Policy makers. Historians. Economists. And practitioners. Come together for a night of creative thinking. \nExciting. Riveting. Thought-provoking..\nJoin us … \n\nFor more debate. More diversity. More proximity.\nMore solutions. More bridges. More stories.\nAnd a delicious\, specially curated\, dinner by a French chef from the Indian countryside.\n\nProgramme:\n6 pm – 6.30 pm: Welcome drinks and Night of Ideas Mela \n6.30 pm – 6.35 pm: Welcome Address by French Ambassador H.E.
