What a way to close out the week! Attendees heard more about ScholarOne's long-term vision which made the case that solving the problems beneath the strain is the only way forward for peer review. We closed with our exectuvie team opening up the floor to a Q&A session, then raised a glass together.
The final day of our DC events is off to a great start! We heard from CEO Will Schweitzer and other leaders about what our teams have planned and have delivered, and are looking forward to afternoon workshops to close things out.
Good morning from our final day in DC! Our client event for ScholarOne Manuscripts kicks off this morning with a keynote presentation from Silverchair CEO Will Schweitzer.
What a day at Platform Strategies 2026! We explored why integrity checks alone can't guarantee research quality as AI reshapes discovery, the future of the platform, and lessons from outside our industry. Jacob Ward closed by asking what we need to protect from AI. Thank you all! #strategies26
Platform Strategies is underway! CEO Will Schweitzer opened on this year's theme, Signal & Noise, and Johns Hopkins' Wendy Queen gave a candid keynote on how AI has reshaped researcher workflows and turning conference ideas into action. Heading into lunch with plenty to think about! #strategies26

Sustainability is part of how we show up at our events. #strategies26 nametags are made from sustainably farmed bamboo, and we're giving attendees the option to bring theirs back year after year.
We're already seeing that idea take hold: 68 attendees are reusing their nametags from last year!
Platform Strategies 2026 kicks off on Wednesday!
Throughout the day, attendees will take part in interactive table topics, breakout sessions, and networking opportunities, while also hearing from industry leaders on trends shaping the industry.
Stay tuned for updates! #strategies26
As we gear up for #strategies26, we're taking a look back at our Platform Strategies 2025 time capsule. Last year's predictions ranged from "success through integrations" to bolder takes like automation is overrated, curation is underrated. What's your prediction for the year ahead?
See you in DC!
