Pedro Castelao is interviewed at the 83rd Madrid Book Fair at the Universidad Pontificia Comillas stand.
19 June 2024
During the 17 days of the Fair, the Comillas stand became a meeting point for numerous students, alumni, University colleagues and visitors in general. We were pleased to attend to all of them and introduce them to the Publications catalogue through different promotional material, which included reading points, fans, notebooks and pens, among others.
Belén Recio Godoy, Director of the Comillas Publications Service, commented: "Despite the fact that sales did not reach the figures of previous editions, mainly due to the bad weather, we are very satisfied with the very active participation of our university community in their visits to the stand. The visibility and impact on social networks has been significant, and this is something we value enormously".
From the publishing house, we would like to thank all those who have contributed to making this edition a memorable experience. We especially thank the authors, teachers, students and staff who have been part of this event.
We bid farewell to the 83rd Madrid Book Fair with the hope of returning next year and continuing to share our passion for reading and knowledge. We look forward to seeing you at the next one!
