SYP London Autumn Conference – Publishing for All.

SYP London is happy to host the 2026 annual Autumn Conference in collaboration with Kington University, celebrating 'Publishing For All'

Through a series of discussions with fellow industry professionals, we hope to explore the trajectory of diversity within the industry. We will showcase the positive changes that have been made in the industry, engaging in timely discussions about current industry trends and topics, whilst also looking towards a hopeful future for publishing. There will be an action-packed day planned of panels, Q&A’s workshops and industry stands for both publishing hopefuls and junior level people to gain insight into the industry or to expand their knowledge further. Including Suzanne Collier's CV Clinic, an Intro to Publishing Panel featuring Dani from Wonderful Recruitment, Salena Pudaruth from Bloomsbury PLC and Chelsea Graham Founder of The Publishing Post.

This year’s Keynote Speaker is Bloomsbury’s Accessibility Manager, Elizabeth Kellingley, winner of London Book Fair’s 2025 Trailblazer Award and Chair of Bloomsbury’s Accessibility Network. Elizabeth has also launched Bloomsbury’s first adult Dyslexia-Friendly books, championing accessibility across the entire publishing industry.
