We want to thank our first sponsors for this year’s Annual Forum for Open Research. We could not achieve our mission to support the advancement of open science in the Arab world without you!

Sponsorship allows us to organise the Annual Forum, bringing together key regional stakeholders from libraries, universities, advocacy groups, and government organisations to share solutions and build collaborations. Sponsorship also allows us to offer a programme of free monthly events and build a library of localised resources for Arab open science communities. Sponsorship also allows us to offer free translation services to global open science organisations, helping to make their resources and solutions accessible for our stakeholders and ensuring the Arab world is represented in global discussions and debates.

Thank you to Taylor & Francis, IEEE, Knowledge E and Zendy.
