Closing Remarks & Outlook APE 2027

The closing remarks of the APE conference provided an overview of event acknowledgements and a forward-looking perspective on future activities. Gratitude was expressed to all conference participants, session moderators, and the technical and audio-visual teams responsible for the event's successful execution. To ensure continued access to the scholarly discourse presented, all video recordings of the conference sessions are scheduled to be made available to attendees via the Cassyni platform, commencing the following Monday. Public access to these recordings is planned to open one month thereafter. Further opportunities for engagement are anticipated, as the Berlin Institute for Scholarly Publishing is set to announce a series of additional events and discussions focused on topics closely aligned with the APE themes, with initial announcements expected from February onwards. Planning for the subsequent APE conference, APE 2027, has also been confirmed, with dates scheduled for 12th and 13th January. Additionally, a post-conference survey will be distributed to gather participant feedback, reinforcing a commitment to ongoing development and community engagement within the scholarly publishing landscape.
