ABOUT US
OUR STORY
Basdor Publishing Group was founded in 2006 in London with a clear mission: to provide authoritative business, economic, and political insight to global decision-makers. Starting as a specialist business trade publisher, we quickly became trusted by multinational corporations, government agencies, and policy institutes for high-quality research, market intelligence, and sector analysis.
Over time, as the world of publishing evolved and the appetite for diverse voices grew, we expanded our focus. In 2019, Basdor Publishing Group opened its doors to fiction and non-fiction literary publishing, championing stories that inform, inspire, and connect readers across the globe.
Today, Basdor Publishing Group stands at the intersection of rigorous research and creative storytelling, committed to publishing work that resonates with thoughtful audiences and shapes meaningful conversations.
