In the fast-evolving world of ICT, knowledge moves quickly—and innovation depends on global exchange. Where and how research is published can be just as important as the findings themselves. Researchers today face more choices than ever, and the right publishing path can dramatically affect the reach, relevance, and real-world impact of their work.

The Advantages of Open Access Publishing in ICT Research

Unlike subscription-based models, open access ensures research is freely available to everyone, without paywalls. For researchers, this means increased visibility, higher citation potential, and broader influence across academia, industry, and policy.

This accessibility is crucial in fast-moving fields like ICT, where research and real-world application evolve in tandem. Open access helps accelerate innovation by making research more immediately applicable and widely shared.

Furthermore, it promotes equity by providing researchers in underserved regions equal access to vital knowledge, leveling the playing field across global research communities.

The Impact of Non-Profit Publishers on Academic Research

Journals owned and published by non-profit societies often reinvest in the research community—through conferences, collaborative networks, and initiatives that strengthen emerging fields.

Contributing to these journals helps sustain a more inclusive and community-focused research ecosystem, benefiting not just individual careers but the field as a whole. This approach fosters a collaborative environment that empowers researchers worldwide.

This accessibility is crucial in fast-moving fields like ICT, where research and real-world application evolve in tandem. Open access helps accelerate innovation by making research more immediately applicable and widely shared.

With thousands of peer-reviewed articles across EAI journals, book and proceeding series, the European Union Digital Library (EUDL) is one of the most active hubs for open access ICT research.

Open access journals, especially those from non-profit publishers, also support transparency and practices like open data and reproducibility, which enhance the credibility and long-term impact of ICT research.

EAI: Advancing ICT Research Through Open Access and Community Engagement

This is where the European Alliance for Innovation (EAI) stands out. EAI journals are open access, peer-reviewed, and operated by a non-profit foundation focused on inclusive, global research engagement.

“Publishing should amplify the work of researchers, not limit its reach. Open access allows both early-career and established scholars to share their findings widely and engage with the global research community. At EAI, our mission is to advance open, inclusive research that fosters collaboration and drives meaningful progress.”

Caitlin Roach

Head of Head of Publications at European Alliance for Innovation (EAI)

With an emphasis on community-driven growth and support for emerging regions and topics, EAI offers more than publication—it offers connection. By submitting to an EAI journal, you join a global effort to make ICT research more accessible, equitable, and impactful.

If you are looking for the right place to publish open access and extend the reach of your research, the EAI journal portfolio offers a range of titles dedicated to global, community-driven scholarship. Explore the journals below to find the best fit for your work.

Together, they represent the future of how we measure systems and design resilient, open, and intelligent infrastructure.

BlockTEA — Where Blockchain Gets Real

Now in its 4th edition, BlockTEA continues to provide a rigorous, peer-reviewed space for researchers focused on turning blockchain from hype to real-world application. With tracks that span decentralized health systems, trust in smart contracts, and AI-data provenance, this is where theory becomes usable architecture.

📍 Venice, Italy |🗓 September 18–19, 2025

The BlockTEA 2025 program will also feature an interactive special session on “IoT in Health Research,” bringing together technical and societal insights into how blockchain is shaping global wellness.

Held in one of the world’s most historically decentralized republics, BlockTEA’s Venice edition will spark conversations from academia to innovation labs — in finance, mobility, health, energy, and beyond.

VALUETOOLS — The Metrics Conference

VALUETOOLS 2025 marks the 18th edition of EAI’s performance-driven conference — one that cuts across theoretical foundations and applied disciplines to evaluate what’s working, what’s scalable, and what’s worth building next.

📍 Glasgow, Scotland 🗓 December 11–12, 2025

With over 15,900 downloads of past proceedings and a legacy of uniting computer scientists, system designers, and operations researchers, VALUETOOLS is the silent architect behind modern algorithm optimization, simulation tools, and analytical benchmarking frameworks.
