O'Reilly Media, Inc. and dpunkt.verlag have launched a media partnership for German-language technology content.
Beginning July 1, 2015, dpunkt will develop and distribute O'Reilly's German-language publishing program, support existing German-language O'Reilly books and, going forward, release new titles under the O'Reilly brand. The companies are also exploring further collaboration on digital products, and bringing O'Reilly's technology conference model to Germany.
The O'Reilly Verlag office has built the O'Reilly brand in Germany since 1994, publishing more than 800 titles and participating actively in the German tech community. Working closely with dpunkt to ensure a smooth and orderly transition, the O'Reilly Verlag office in Köln, Germany, will close in stages, over the course of the next year.
