-�Media
OutReach�- 23 April 2019 -
Storytel, one of the world's leading audiobook platforms, has announced that
it is now available in Singapore with a catalogue of over 85,000 titles to
start. Hailing from Sweden, Storytel's entry to Singapore marks the first in
its expansion to South East Asia and the 16^th country globally where
the service is offered.

The
streaming service provides customers unlimited access to books of all genres
through an app installed on mobile devices at a monthly subscription of S$9.90,
with multiple plans available to provide choice and convenience to families.

Each
subscription plan comes with the ability to activate the 'Kids Mode' feature, a
filter that allows children to safely find the books that speak to them, ensuring
an enjoyable time where Storytel powers the reading.

"We
are delighted to introduce Storytel to Singapore. Singaporeans love a good book
but are increasingly finding it difficult to read due to a lack of time and
other commitments. Storytel aims to bridge that gap by offering instant access,
anytime and anywhere," said Shalu Wasu, Country Manager, Storytel Singapore. "Motivated
by a desire to learn constantly and maximize efficiency through multitasking,
Singaporeans can now make full use of each moment, be it travel time or time
spent waiting, with Storytel."

To
add local flavour, Storytel will feature a shelf of titles by local authors
through partnerships with homegrown publishers like Marshall Cavendish, Epigram
and Armour Publishing. Storytel will also work with authors to produce local
narrations as exclusive content.

Working closely with the local publishing
ecosystem in Singapore, Storytel will support local authors and publishers in
their quest to find new audiences and revenue streams.

"I am
genuinely thrilled to be working with Storytel. It is the first time that an audiobook
platform will be working so closely with authors in Singapore. Storytel is a welcome and timely boost for the local
literary scene, from authors to publishers," said
Neil Humphreys, one of Singapore's best-selling authors.�

The goal�for�Storytel�is�to become
the�go-to destination for audiobook consumers�in Singapore�and
for it to be a launchpad for future expansion into the region. Storytel aims to
