Kogan Page

Kogan Page started as an independent publishing company founded in 1967 and headquartered in London, with branches in New York and New Delhi. Kogan Page specialises in business books and digital content, with over 1,000 titles published in key subject areas. Hachette UK announced the acquisition of Kogan Page on 1st May 2026. Following the acquisition, Kogan Page is now part of the John Murray Group and continues to operate as a distinct publishing brand within the division, maintaining its market-leading focus while benefiting from Hachette’s global distribution, marketing capabilities, and technological infrastructure. Prior to the acquisition, the company's Managing Director was Helen Kogan and the publishing house was already home to a number of authors. In 2007, Kogan Page's founder, Philip Kogan, was recognised with an IPG Lifetime Achievement Award.

Large trade publishers generally accept manuscripts only through literary agents, while many independent and small presses accept direct submissions during reading periods. Before submitting anywhere, read the publisher's current guidelines, study recent books on its list, and never pay a reading or publishing fee to a traditional publisher.
