Ursula Mackenzie
Little, Brown, chief executive
Known for her forthright, jolly demeanour, Mackenzie is arguably the most powerful woman in British publishing as other senior women have stepped back or moved on. The former lecturer in English and American Literature at the University of Hong Kong joined Little, Brown as chief executive in 2006. Its most recent bestseller is crime writer Robert Galbraith, pseudonym of JK Rowling.’ – London Evening Standard

In a creative industry, it is all about who you know, and the conference will allow young publishers to meet and learn from top industry professionals. The day consists of different streams of seminars that can be mixed and matched to create a day that suits each individual. You never know, one day, one of our delegates may be on the most influential literati list!
