FEP annual Rendez-Vous at the Frankfurt Book Fair 2022

As every year, FEP organised its traditional Rendez Vous at the Frankfurt Book Fair. The event took place on 20 October 2022, from 12.30 until 13.30, with the co-organisation of the Frankfurt Book Fair.

This year’s event was made extraordinary by a video message sent us by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, complemented by interventions by Oleksandr Afonin (President of the Ukrainian Publishers and Booksellers Association), Jesús Badenes del Río (CEO of Publishing Division at Grupo Planeta), and Juergen Boos (President and CEO of the Frankfurt Book Fair). FEP President, Peter Kraus vom Cleff, chaired and moderated the event.

You can find the video message sent by President Zelenskyy on his official Facebook and Instagram accounts and on the Frankfurt Book Fair’s YouTube channel.

A partial press coverage of the event - which drove international attention from TV, radio and newspapers, is available at the following link.
