The Sharji agency for literature plans to sign a few agreements within the framework of its participation in the upcoming conference for publishers, taking place within the Sharji International Book Exhibition. Tamer Said, the agency's director, notes that their work is aimed at supporting writers and creative individuals so that they can exclusively concentrate on their creativity and transform their creative works into multifunctional projects.
"Belief in the value of the writer and his noble message inspires us to strive for excellence and uniqueness, to transform their creative potential into multifaceted projects, protected by legislation and relieving investment in their creativity," he added.
Under the leadership of Sheikh Budur bint Sultan al-Qasimi, chair of the Board of Directors of the Sharji Management, the agency actively promotes its presence in the global arena and represents Arabic literature in an innovative light, partnering with prominent creative industries and increasing opportunities for Arab writers to present their contributions to the world.
