About you
Your organization

We'll only use your information to coordinate the meeting and share relevant publishing resources.

Why meet with us

Walk away with a concrete plan for direct-to-reader

The U.S. Book Show is where the future of publishing is debated — direct reader engagement, AI-enhanced reading experiences, audio and translation expansion, page-to-screen tie-ins. We'll show you how Publica.la helps you act on those trends, not just talk about them.

Direct-to-reader storefronts

Launch your own branded D2C ebook and audiobook store. Keep the customer relationship, the data, and the margin — without rebuilding tech from scratch.

Native reading apps

White-labeled apps for iOS, Android, macOS and Windows that your readers download from their app store. Distribution and discovery without surrendering your brand.

Vito AI — chat with the book

Vito turns every title into a conversation. Readers ask questions, get instant chapter summaries, and take auto-generated quizzes — without leaving the page. Built for comprehension and engagement, with full source attribution.

Who you'll meet

Ignacio, CBDO at Publica.la

Ignacio leads business development at Publica.la and has helped 1,000+ organizations across 50+ countries — from independent publishers to global media groups — design their direct-to-reader strategy. He'll be in NYC June 2–3 for back-to-back meetings during the show.

Bring questions about your catalog, your tech stack, your distribution model — or just your wildest "what if we…" idea. The session is consultative, not a pitch.

Common questions

Is the meeting free?
Yes — there is no cost. The meeting is a consultative conversation about your goals, your catalog, and how Publica.la might fit. No pitch deck, no commitment.
How long is each meeting?
Slots are 30 minutes. If we need more time we can schedule a deeper follow-up later in the week or after the show.
Can we meet virtually if I am not attending the show?
Yes. Ignacio will hold both in-person meetings in NYC and virtual meetings during the same window. When you book, just note your preference. After the show we're happy to reconnect over video too.
What should I bring or prepare?
Nothing formal. A rough sense of your catalog size, your current distribution and tech stack, and the business goal that brought you to USBS is enough to make the conversation useful.
Do you have a stand at U.S. Book Show?
We don't have a booth this year — we're attending specifically for these scheduled meetings. That means each conversation gets full attention rather than a passing booth interaction.
