The getAbstract International Book Award is a bilingual award for nonfiction business-focused books.

History
The getAbstract International Book Award has been presented annually since 2001 and is awarded to four authors (or co-authors) for their work in English or German.

The award intends to raise the visibility of "(...) titles that make a difference to how [people] think, work, and live.” Until 2020, the award ceremony took place at the Frankfurt Book Fair; since the COVID-19 pandemic, the award has been presented virtually. In 2021, the getAbstract International Book Award will include a total financial prize of EUR 20,000. == Media partners ==
