TalentS was commissioned to manage the operations and logistics for the inaugural Paperback Art Book Fair, held from November 1–3, 2024, at the JAX District in Diriyah. As Saudi Arabia’s first international event dedicated to artists’ books, the fair brought together 25 exhibitors and welcomed over 5,500 visitors.

TalentS responsibilities included securing permits from key authorities, coordinating logistics for all exhibitors—including flights, hotel accommodations, and local transport—and overseeing the full event setup. TalentS also managed booth installations, AV requirements, and on-site operations, ensuring a seamless experience for participants and attendees.

The fair featured 5 public programs and facilitated over 1,800 sales transactions. TalentS provided and supervised POS systems, managed device rentals, generated post-event sales reports, and handled financial reconciliation. This milestone event marked a significant step in advancing the artists› book scene in the Kingdom.
