The Shift empowers the creators and readers

to define a new world of publishing


“We think of the shift as the next step of publishing, but that is not what the shift is about at all. The

shift is the next step of the creating and reading. It is something that is happening on a different time

line. And it has an incredibly disruptive effect on the old publishing world of print.

The shift is not about the format. It is a shift in power back to the creators and the readers, who are

defining a new world of publishing.”

- Thomas Baekdal, Founder of Baekdal, writer, strategic consultant, media advocate and author of the

book “The Shift, from print to digital...and beyond”
