Followers of wikinomics.com in Brazil, China, Japan, Portugal, and the Spanish-speaking world can now look forward to seeing copies of Wikinomics in their native language. The publisher (Portfolio) recently announced a series of deals that will see the book come out in these markets over the next 6 months. Needless to say, Don and I are very pleased that Wikinomics is well on the path to going truly global.

More details about release dates will follow here, but here are the publishers for now:

Portugal/Brazil: Quid Novi
Spain: Paidos
Japan: Nikkei BP

Meanwhile, for the time-constrained, we’ve recently learned of a deal that will see Wikinomics published in executive summary format by Soundview. Executive summaries will soon be available in print, audio, and digital.
