What happens to a great African story when the right reader never discovers it?
Every day, talented African writers create stories worth reading. Yet many struggle to publish, reach readers and build an audience. Independent bookstores and publishers face similar challenges getting their catalogues in front of more people.
We believe technology can help change that. That belief led us to build Pagia, a digital publishing and reading platform connecting African authors, publishers, bookstores and readers.
Authors can write directly on the platform or upload completed ebooks and publish them. Publishers and bookstores can establish a digital presence, while readers can discover books from African creators.
We are building a digital home for African books, starting with Nigeria and looking towards the wider African literary ecosystem.
