"Improving Publishing through Technology"

Crius Group presented CORE, a new online publishing tool, at the Frankfurt Bookfair last week. Apart from the appointments made on beforehand a lot of trade visitors showed spontanious interest in CORE. In the meantime CORE is entereing the beta testing phase and is to be deployed commercially as of the beginning of 2010.

The Frankfurt Bookfair is the largest bookfair in the world. It hosts three days during the week for trade visitors and the weekend for the public. This year the Frankfurter Messe welcomed over 290.000 visitors, the second highest number in it's 60 years of existence. 400.000 books were on display and there were more than 7300 exhibitors from 100 countries.

Crius Group managed to attract people from 20 different countries to it's stand in Hall 4.0, the publishing technology venue. With certainly not the biggest stand it was CORE itself that drew attention. This new solution saves time and money for publishers and offers control over the production process. With eBooks being the big buzz at the Fair this year, the included ePub rendering in CORE definately had a high appeal for publishers."
