German communications firm WBCO will have particular responsibility for organizing our press conferences in Germany, the first of which will be held in conjunction with the Frankfurt Book Fair this autumn, to coincide with Finnish Literature Day and the birthday of Aleksis Kivi on 10 October.

WBCO is an experienced firm that has already managed media communications for eight previous Frankfurt Book Fair Guest of Honour countries. It was chosen to work for us after a public tendering process.
