Simon & Schuster and Urano World Publishing Group, one of the biggest independent publishers in Spain and Latin America, has partnered on a publishing arrangement between Primero Sueño Press, an imprint of Atria Books, and Urano Publishing. This is the first time S&S will have the opportunity to distribute directly into the Spanish-speaking marketplace.
“This partnership is representative of S&S’s ambition to expand the scope of its international publishing efforts, in English, translated work, and foreign languages,” S&S said.
As part of the agreement, a select number of Spanish-language titles will be published in Spain and Latin America by Urano World and its imprints, as well as distributing titles directly to most Spanish-speaking territories throughout the world. In the US, co-published titles will be published under the Primero Sueño Press imprint.
“Since we announced Primero Sueño Press in February 2024, the reader response to the imprint’s mission to serve Spanish and English speakers has been remarkable,” said S&S CEO Jonathan Karp. “This partnership with Urano World Publishing Group, one of the best-known and most respected publishers of Spanish-language books around the world, is an exciting next step in making these books available to readers worldwide and expanding their reach. We are thrilled to offer our authors the opportunity to extend their reach into Spanish-language markets.”
