On March 21, 2025

We are delighted to be a sponsor for the 4th Annual Forum for Open Research! Bringing together leading international experts and key regional stakeholders, the Annual Forum for Open Research in MENA supports the Arab world’s transition towards more accessible, sustainable and inclusive research and education models.
This year’s Annual Forum will take place in the UAE, in partnership with the American University of Sharjah, and our sponsorship of the event reflects our commitment (as a Diamond Open Access publisher) to the advancement of accessible knowledge throughout the region, as well as our company mission to ensure knowledge is accessible to everyone, everywhere.
The Annual Forum for Open Research is the flagship event of the Forum for Open Research in MENA (FORM). FORM is a non-profit initiative supporting the advancement of Open Science policies and practices in research institutions and research communities throughout the Arab world, by facilitating the exchange of actionable insights and the development of practical policies. The Annual Forum takes place in a different Arab state each year and provides a valuable arena for librarians, researchers, government policymakers, universities and international experts to discuss and debate key themes and issues relating to the development and implementation of open science policies and practices in Arab research communities.
