NAO Studio Publishing is an independent French publishing house, founded by Noémie Coplo, specialising in LGBTQIA+ works, including webtoons, manga and graphic novels. Its aim is to bring to light stories that are inclusive, sincere and powerful, with emotions at the heart of the narrative. Through its publications, NAO Studio Publishing seeks to demystify queer romance while offering stories that are deeply human and representative of the diversity of identities.
Winner of the national ‘101 Women Entrepreneurs for France’ competition, Noémie Coplo is passionate about her project, which is fuelled by her own experiences and her desire to create a publishing space that is caring, daring and demanding. As a publisher and digital project manager, she is also developing a digital services business to support small businesses in their online communications and visibility.
At NAO Studio Publishing, Noémie works with a team of talented freelancers – translators, illustrators and designers – and regularly collaborates with LGBTQIA+ associations to ensure accurate and respectful representation. Each publication is conceived as a meeting of cultures, styles and sensibilities, with particular attention paid to editorial quality and design.
More than a publishing house, NAO Studio Publishing is a project of the heart, a bridge between worlds, and a committed player on the contemporary cultural scene.
