We leverage a data-driven strategy, supported by Scopus, to provide the insights needed for informed decisions regarding your journal program.

Elsevier publishes 17% of global research output that accounts for 29% of citations, reflecting our commitment to ensuring research that meets rigorous standards of integrity, thereby supporting you in your mission to advance your discipline. Together, we can navigate the future of research with confidence.

Authors, editors and readers score Elsevier’s publishing support and services highly against market benchmarks. This is driven by Elsevier’s submission system; author and editor tools that save time whilst providing unique insight; first-class production focused on quality and speed; and industry-leading publishing platforms, all enhanced through innovative content discovery, positioning your journal for success.

Elsevier’s unique, data-driven approach can help you to identify, solicit and acquire the most relevant content, and ScienceDirect and our journal-branded sites provide that content with unrivalled visibility and market penetration worldwide, maximizing its reach and impact.

As one of the world’s leading open access publishers, Elsevier publishes over 890 fully open access journals and has helped many societies embrace open access.

Elsevier is absolutely committed to meeting authors’ needs and has a wealth of experience in launching and flipping journals to open access; in developing subscription and open access portfolios for success; and in helping societies to respond to initiatives such as Plan S and OSTP, and grow through Transformative Agreements.

The International Association for Food Protection and Poultry Science Association are just two societies that have recently made the switch to full gold open access.

We support our partners in high-growth regions by building strong relationships with authors, editors, reviewers, and institutions. In China, for example, our ongoing collaboration has contributed to over a 20% market share and quality levels exceeding the average by more than 40%. We focus on understanding the unique needs of each market, expanding our local teams in cities such as Beijing, Shenzhen, and Chennai. By working closely with key stakeholders, we aim to enable progress and foster partnerships that benefit the wider research community.

We understand that a strong financial return is essential to achieving your publishing objectives and broader societal goals.
