Saudi Literature Commission Launches Int'l Training Program for Literary Agent
The Saudi Literature, Publishing, and Translation Commission has launched the 2025 International Training Program for Literary Agent, a five-day initiative held in the United Kingdom.
The program features theoretical development sessions covering the latest industry strategies, one-on-one consultations with global publishing experts, and field visits to some of the UK's leading literary agencies.
The program began with an interactive first day designed to qualify Saudi literary agents and agencies, enabling them to gain insight into global best practices. It presents a unique opportunity for Saudi participants to elevate their work by learning directly from international expertise.
The initiative is part of the commission's efforts to support literary agents and agencies in the Kingdom through intensive, high-quality training.
It includes workshops, advisory and mentoring sessions with international specialists, and on-site visits to top literary agencies worldwide.
The aim is to inspire and equip Saudi agents to operate at global standards while enhancing their skills with innovative solutions in the publishing industry.
