We were pleased to partner with JAMS, our premier sponsor for the 18th EASE Conference, to bring you this webinar.

What does it take to build and grow a journal from scratch in today’s academic publishing world? In this webinar, hosted by JAMS, an Editor-in-Chief shared their personal journey—what inspired him to launch his journal, the challenges he encountered along the way, and how he has navigated common hurdles such as limited visibility, discoverability, and editorial resources. This session was an open and honest conversation about the realities of running a small journal and the strategies that can help amplify its impact. Whether you’re just starting out or looking to strengthen your journal’s presence, this webinar offers relatable insights and practical advice from an editor who has been in your shoes.

This event was free and open to all. View the recording.
