Welcome Reception

Sunday, June 3
7:45 am - 5:30 pm

Increased concerns about economic and educational competitiveness, pressure on traditional domestic markets, and the rise of cloud technology are all making educational publishers look with fresh eyes at doing business around the world. Planned with the guidance of an Advisory Board of experts in global educational product development and marketing, the CIC International Market Forum will help you understand the globalization of our industry and the effect on the development and distribution of educational content. Novice and experienced international publishers will benefit from presentations by education ministry representatives and global education industry experts as well as from roundtable sessions on key countries and opportunities.

Attendees will:

Find out where the hot, emerging international markets are
Learn how to access these markets, including tips for breaking into the U.S.
And make connections with fellow publishers interested in creating international partnerships.

View the Forum Schedule.

Advance registration is required and is open to Content in Context (CIC) attendees only. The CIC is THE event for anyone dedicated to improving the development, creation, publication, and distribution of educational content and resources.
