Asia-Pacific Publishing Partnerships
Nature Publishing Group (NPG) understands both the specific needs of societies in the Asia-Pacific region and the ever-changing arena of the scientific and medical publishing industry. Publishing partnerships are a growing part of our business, and we have a proven track record of editorial and commercial success. We recognize the increasing contribution of Asia-Pacific researchers to science and medicine worldwide.
We also understand the value that scientific and medical societies in the region place upon their own publications. In our publishing partnerships we are focused upon maximizing the quality and international visibility of these publications.
- Our partnerships focus on high levels of communication and tailored plans that enable each journal to develop its individual strengths. Strong face-to-face relationships between responsible NPG staff based in the region and our society partners are the cornerstone of our partnerships.
