About Accufest

Accufest has been running alongside Frankfurt Book Fair since 2014 and gives our clients the opportunity to meet and network as well as hear from us on our experiences in various markets globally. Due to the Covid-19 pandemic this event was virtual last year and will again be virtual this year. We are hoping to be back at Frankfurt Book Fair in person in 2022.
