This year the CTBF is in its 5th edition; and moving fast towards the digital age. A selected group of highly succesful European ePubs, in conjunction with Frankfurter Buchmesse, presented seminars and workshops, assisting local publishers in exploring this fast-paced genre. From iPad and smartphone downloads to interactive books and personalized content, we discussed it all.With the support of the Goethe Institut South Africa , CTBF invited more than 15 publishers from other African countries to attend the fair and showcase the best African Books. This year also saw the inaugural CTBF Professional Day, with a professional programme for all exhibitors and trade visitors. Matchmaking sessions, rights-and business-lounges provided exhibitors, buyers and the trade with hours of concentrated book-talk.
A highlight at the show was a discussion and wine tasting, presented by Elmari Swart. We looked at the influence of terroir on Sauvignon Blanc. Cheviot would like to thank Onderkloof and Gabriëlskloof for sponsoring the wines, and the CTICC and CTBF for inviting us to present the tasting.
