Russian Start–Up Bookmate Wins Innovation Award at London Book Fair

Bookmate has gained attention recently as the e-book subscription app grows overseas.

It seems that readers aren’t the only ones to notice the Russian-based company. Bookmate won the Digital Minds Innovation Award at the London Book Fair last week. Hundreds of companies were in the running for the award, but Bookmate made it to the final with five other companies. Each company spoke to a group of digital publishing leaders, and the winner was picked by popular vote.
