Today, producing a book involves coordinating numerous resources and working within strict structural and economic constraints. This makes the publishing chain vulnerable, particularly for independent houses and local printworks.

The task at hand is to preserve and strengthen Switzerland’s publishing ecosystem while supporting cooperation beyond its borders – a continuing dialogue with European countries, but also those further afield. Recognising books which appeared in 2024, this catalogue of competition winners casts a spotlight on collaboration between the different professions in bookmaking: graphic design studios, publishing houses, and printers.
