Opening up collaborative research for innovators to make a lasting impact
Enabling researchers to focus on their mission
We help people who make a difference to make a difference – by making open, collaborative and inclusive research possible
Our Mission
Digital Science believes research is the single most powerful transformational force for the long-term improvement of society
Our Vision
A future where a trusted, frictionless, collaborative research ecosystem drives progress for all
Our Values
Our work and our staff embody these values which guide what we do every day, how we partner and work with the research community
How it all began
Digital Science was launched in 2010 after our founders realised that science had yet to seize the opportunities offered by digital technologies transforming our lives. The software that researchers, academic institutions, publishers, funders, and industrial research organisations used at that time, was largely home-built or niche. We believed we could develop and deliver the high-quality software tools that researchers deserved.
We started off with a team of five people. Today, we have more than 500 colleagues in over 20 countries worldwide, and we work with hundreds of partners to deliver value and success.
Over the years we have added a broad range of trusted software, insights, analytics, and content to meet the community’s needs. Digital Science is now a vibrant mix of the companies that we’ve invested in over the last decade, and our customers benefit from the deep domain expertise associated with each of the products.
Today, Digital Science is a trusted partner providing research workflow solutions and data and analytical insights.
