Partnerships
At Glassboxx, we believe that collaboration and partnerships are key to building a thriving community. The publishing industry (among others!) is constantly evolving and we take pride in being a part of this changing landscape.
We value collaboration and partnerships with publishers, organisations and other industry professionals. By working together, we can share expertise, develop innovative ideas, and create new opportunities for growth and success.
Publishers Association
We are an associate member of the publishers association, which represents everything from trade publishers to research journals. We believe it is important for the diversity of the publishing industry to be reflected, especially given that the ways in which content is being produced and consumed are constantly evolving.
Independent Publishers Guild
You might see us at the IPG Spring and Autumn Conferences, where, as an IPG member, we look forward to catching up regularly with many of the independents that we work with. We won the IPG Services to Independent Publishers award in 2022, and were delighted to have been shortlisted again in 2023.
The Bookseller
We have worked with the Bookseller since 2016 and frequently sponsor the Independent Publisher of the Year award. You might have seen us around at Futurebook, where the last few years have focused on developing digital strategies and the burgeoning audiobook market – a key interest that we share.

We are very pleased to be partnering with Webqem to support our Glassboxx Asia Pacific and Australian New Zealand customer base.

Publishing Accessibility Action Group (PAAG)
We are an ally of the PAAG, and are invested in helping to raise awareness and understanding of accessibility in publishing, while working to increase it. This has been a longstanding commitment of ours, and has been informed by research, testing, and feedback that has reaffirmed to us the importance of being able to read intuitively across all formats.
