Introducing our Editorial Board! We’ve recently been joined by four amazing publishing experts – Magdalene Abraha, Rik Ubhi, Linda Secondari and Emmanuel Kolade – to form our new team of six Editorial Board members.

The BookMachine Board consult on and guide everything we programme and put together for you all.

They steer the direction of our virtual events, curate the weekly blog and feed the vibrant publishing community with knowledge, thought leadership and ideas to progress in their careers.

Each Board member brings with them a wealth of diverse industry experience in their particular specialism. Their shared knowledge will keep you ahead of your peers at work, and give you the confidence to take more initiative when developing new projects.

We’re so excited to work on our 2021 programme with this brilliant team of publishing pros!
