ChronosHub Publisher Advisory Board 

A dedicated forum for publishers to share their expertise and help shape the future of scholarly publishing.  

The art of listening 

The best software is the result of a conversation. Between those building it and those who actually use it.  

At ChronosHub, we’ve long relied on insights and honest feedback from people across scholarly publishing to guide our decision-making. And in 2023, we formalized this process by forming the ChronosHub Publisher Advisory Board.  

Meeting every quarter, this group of industry experts includes customers and non-customers, representing publishers of various sizes and specialties. They keep us up to speed with the industry’s latest trends, challenges, and opportunities for innovation.  

 

The insights we’ve gained from the board have been instrumental in shaping our strategic direction. Speaking personally, the meetings are really fun too! Dedicated time to dig into the weeds on things with super smart people.
