PARTNERSHIPS & RIGHTS
Built for Long-Term Collaboration
BOXA Publishing engages in partnerships where ideas, intent, and timelines align.
This page exists to outline how we approach collaboration, rights management, and long-term development, not to solicit volume submissions or short-term deals.
We work carefully, selectively, and with a clear view of the future.
Partnership Philosophy
We approach partnerships as extensions of intellectual property stewardship.
If a partnership cannot support continuity and care, it’s unlikely to be the right fit.
That means:
• Long-term thinking over one-off outcomes
• Clear ownership and rights structures
• Mutual respect for the work and its evolution
• Patience in development and release
TYPES OF PARTNERSHIPS CONSIDERED
Publishing Partnerships
Co-developed or co-managed publishing projects designed for long-term growth.
Rights & Licensing
Discussions relating to translation, adaptation, distribution, or format expansion.
Creative Collaboration
Selective collaboration with authors or creators where intellectual property benefits from shared development.
Extensions & Adaptations
Exploration of adaptations across media, platforms, or formats where appropriate.
Each opportunity is evaluated individually and deliberately.
What We Look For
Partnerships that move forward tend to share a few qualities:
— A clear long-term vision for the work
— Willingness to develop over time
— Respect for structure, standards, and process
— Alignment with the BOXA Publishing philosophy
Speed and scale are rarely decisive factors.
What We Don’t Offer
To maintain focus, BOXA Publishing does not:
• Accept open manuscript submissions
• Operate as a vanity or hybrid publisher
• Take on short-term publishing services
• Engage in rights deals without clear long-term intent
This clarity protects both the work and the people behind it.

How to Start a Conversation
If you believe there may be genuine alignment, the best next step is to reach out with context.
A useful first message includes:
> A brief overview of the work or opportunity
> Why it aligns with BOXA Publishing
> Any relevant timelines or constraints
We review all enquiries thoughtfully and respond where there is clear potential for alignment.
