Borghino was part of an inaugural group of fellows that included French translation publisher Živko Vlahović; Sofija Živkovic an independent publisher based in Serbia and Sharjah; publisher, critic and Vice President of Serbian PEN, Gojko Božović; Serbian artist and illustrator Marina Veselinović; and Montenegrin publisher Natalija Ðialetić.
Borghino spoke in both Podgorica and Nikšić (the 2030 European Capital of Culture) about the IPA’s dual policy drivers of copyright and freedom to publish, and (inevitably) about the IPA’s position on Artificial Intelligence — when he spoke about the need for AI platforms to be transparent about the works that they’ve ingested to train their Large Language Models and how they must find a fair way to remunerate the rightsholders of those works.
The Fellowship was supported by the Ministry of Culture and Media of Montenegro in partnership with the publisher Obodsko slovo and the Association of Publishers and Booksellers of Montenegro.
