Challenges in the book industry: Startups have these approaches

 

Change is now part of everyday life in the media industry - and thus also for book publishers. Because: nobody can ignore digitization. But digitization does not just bring one challenge, it brings numerous ones.

Suggested solutions are generated by startups that develop new and creative approaches in the digital environment, including for book publishers. We present three challenges in the book industry and the solutions proposed by startups.

Challenge: combine print and digital

This is where a leading startup wants to help with its app: after the book page has been scanned, it appears on the Smartphone in e-book format. So the reading pleasure can be continued seamlessly.

Challenge: Be more than just a book

Why should a digital book only consist of text and not contain additional features that expand, supplement, and deepen it? L-Pub can help here. Originally, the L-Book was intended as a learning tool for foreign language acquisition by combining the words with definitions, translations, and explanations.

Challenge: make browsing more user-friendly

On the Smartphone or tablet, you can quickly find a pastime with Netflix, Candy Crush, and Co. in your free time - who wants to get up from the couch to go to the bookshelf? New ways and potentials to bring the right book directly to the discerning reader can be discovered online above all.

To make it easier to escape from everyday life and to guide those looking for exciting entertainment to a suitable book, find - the magic book box takes a digital detour. The app provides reading samples and without knowing or searching for the title or authors, the story is presented directly and immediately to the user.
