As part of ongoing programme of sponsoring conferences on publishing, we are happy to be Gold sponsors for the upcoming conference in London, just after the London Book Fair.
River Valley will have a stand at the London Book Fair, 16–18 April 2012. Please pop by and hear about:

• A peer review system built on WordPress;
• An even more efficient workflow for structuring mathematical text;
• Our plans for expansion outside Kerala.
We will be at booth N402, Opposite the Crussh Bar!
