Berlin (Germany) and London (UK) 25 March 2025– ResearchGate, the leading professional network for researchers, and IntechOpen, a prominent open access and open science publisher, have announced a new partnership that will increase the reach and brand visibility of IntechOpen’s journals through Journal Home.
Founded by scientists, IntechOpen has long been committed to making academic publishing more accessible worldwide. This new agreement covers their open access journals in the rapidly advancing interdisciplinary fields of technology and environmental sciences. The partnership will expand discoverability and usage for these titles, providing immediate access to newly published content to ResearchGate’s active community of over 25 million+ researchers.
Journal Home will also enable IntechOpen to grow journal discoverability and awareness globally, increasing usage of their article content and growing authorship through new and existing authors. Dedicated journal profiles providing key journal information and content will allow ResearchGate members to understand how they are connected to a journal’s community. Additionally, the journals will have prominent branding on all associated article pages and other relevant touchpoints with members. Journal Home also supports author engagement throughout their researcher cycle and beyond the published article, building deeper relationships with relevant author communities, attracting new authors and increasing author loyalty.
IntechOpen journal authors will also benefit from having their articles automatically added to their ResearchGate profiles, boosting engagement with their research and making it easier for them to connect with their readers, including unique insights on who is reading and citing their work.
“IntechOpen journals are driven by the belief that science moves forward when knowledge is open, accessible, and shared without barriers. Through open science, we empower researchers to collaborate, innovate, and push the boundaries of discovery. We are dedicated to giving our authors the best possible visibility, ensuring their work reaches the right communities and makes a real impact. Our new Journal Home partnership strengthens our commitment to democratising knowledge, fostering collaboration, and creating a fair and inclusive space where every researcher has the opportunity to contribute and thrive,” said Natalia Reinić Babić, Head of Journal Publishing and Open Science at IntechOpen.
Sören Hofmayer, co-founder and Chief Strategy Officer of ResearchGate, commented, “IntechOpen’s journals address some of the world’s toughest challenges in engineering, computer science and robotics, and the environment. Journal Home’s unique network capabilities and enhanced discovery and access for journals will grow these journals’ reader and author communities. We’re excited to help amplify and encourage greater international exchange on these important areas of research.”
