Academic Press is a historic publishing house run by a dynamic, passionate, and multilingual (French, German, Italian, English, Bulgarian) team. We are a young, diverse group, resolutely committed to our mission: to promote and distribute contemporary Swiss research in the humanities and social sciences.
We are proud to define ourselves as a publishing house that serves contemporary research needs: we accompany authors from the selection of publications to their appraisal and distribution. To showcase and promote their work, in addition to specialized communications, press, and social media, we organize launch parties and events tailored to the themes and needs of our contributors.
Located a stone’s throw from the University of Fribourg, at the linguistic crossroads of Switzerland, our office is always open to our authors and members of our collections committees, who are invited to “inhabit” our premises for meetings, exchanges, and research presentations.
Our publishing managers, whether permanent or comissioned, have in-depth expertise in their fields (theology, history, social sciences, literature, interculturality, art history, etc.), guaranteeing rigorous, specialized support.
Meanwhile, our in-house graphic designer and distribution assistant can help you make the right aesthetic, communication, and distribution choices to showcase your books in the best possible way.
