Policy changes don't happen in isolation, and neither does our market analysis. In response to recent client questions about new U.S. tariffs, Simba Information reaffirms our ongoing commitment to monitoring the policy developments that influence the education market, including trade policy, curriculum mandates, and funding dynamics. Our latest blog post, Education Publishing Faces New Pressures as 2025 US Tariffs Expand, explores the implications of the 2025 tariff expansion on textbook imports, printing paper, instructional aids, and international sourcing for PreK–12 and higher education publishers. Drawing from historical data on the 2019–2020 tariff cycle, we highlight: ~How rising costs and disrupted supply chains may delay curriculum adoption timelines ~Why cost pressures could lead to increased reuse of outdated content and reduced export activity ~The sectors most vulnerable to volatility, including rural schools and correctional education programs ~The growing urgency for digital-first and hybrid content strategies This analysis reflects our broader mission: equipping stakeholders with actionable insights rooted in both current trends and past disruptions.
