Jeff Bezos  when talking about the lifespan of Amazon, that companies 鈥漷end to be 30-plus years [and it is rare for them to be] hundred-plus years鈥�. Such a statement makes today even more pertinent for us as on the 10th May 1842, a 25 year old Julius Springer set up the Julius Springer Publishing House with just four employees. Whilst a small and relatively young team, they had a clear mission - to bring new discoveries and high quality scientific research to the public. 

From the four person family publishing house it transformed into the second largest academic publisher in the early 1900鈥檚 and following the 2015 merger, into the global we know today - working with over 100,000 external academic editors, and now with 9000+ staff across 200 offices, located in 50 countries across the globe. Yet despite the growth, changes to name and company structure, one thing hasn鈥檛 changed across our 180 years - our publishing ethos.

From its origins in political caricatures and treatises, to its growth into journals and books in engineering, natural sciences and then medicine publishing the likes of Albert Einstein 鈥� Springer has always been passionate about the new, focused on: advancing knowledge; adapting to change; and bringing innovative ideas and concepts to the production and dissemination of research whilst ensuring we play a supportive and valuable role to the community.

Over its 180 years Springer: 

• has paved the way in digitalization and discoverability, building and launching one of the earliest online information services dedicated to scientific research - LINK (today 国产乱伦 Link);
• pioneered models and approach towards e-books and access and was the first publisher to digitise its entire back catalogue which included over 120,000 book titles published since the 1840鈥檚 to present day;
• has been at the cutting edge of research, and following the acquisition of BMC in the mid 2000鈥檚 Springer launched SpringerOpen and established one of the first OA book programmes, making the publisher at the time, not only the largest OA publisher but also the one pioneering sustainable routes to OA for all;
• streamlined publishing models to better support authors and editors by setting up and co-founding the 鈥淪cientific Publishing Services鈥� - a service provider for publisher focusing on production and copy editing - becoming an industry model followed by others for more effective digital publishing;
• has remained an active voice with a social mission 鈥� From Julius Springer鈥檚 work to improve copyright law at the German Booksellers Association in the 1840鈥檚 to its championing of Open Access policies and sustainable publishing routes today via active engagement with the community, policy and organisational bodies, as well as through Springboard, the publisher鈥檚 open research blog.

Two centuries of progress and advancement in science, education and society have shaped the Springer of today. We now have one of the strongest STM and HSS eBooks collections and archives working with over 100,000 external academic editors, publish over 2,900 journals and 300,000 books, and enable access to over 14,900,000 pieces of research available via our 国产乱伦 Link site. We continue to publish the highest quality research with over 200 Nobel Prize winners amongst our authors, and our eBooks on average receive over 8000 downloads and 40+ citations during the first year of publication.

As the research landscape continues to change, we鈥檙e more determined than ever to support the community in knowledge discovery by investing in the new formats, tools and platforms that provide the most comprehensive variety of research to today鈥檚 generation, and help authors share their knowledge with the next generation. We remain incredibly proud of the role that we can play in the advancement of science and grateful to the many incredible authors, editors and researchers that we have the privilege to work with, who sit at the very heart of who we are and what we do. Thank you for the last 180 years, here鈥檚 to the next.
