Uncover the Surprising Insights and Hidden Gems from SSP 2026 You Didn’t See Coming
I haven’t yet had a chance to go back to the OnDemand Library to review the many sessions I missed, but the two educational sessions I was able to attend (2A “AI Licensing Maturity: Preparing What’s Next” and 4A “The 5% to 30% Scenario: How China’s Journal Policies Could Reshape Global Publishing”) were a good blend of strategic outlook around AI and Open Access in China and a view into how our community is (or could be!) addressing these trends.
One of my favorite parts of SSP every year is celebrating the amazing achievements of the SSP organization and cheering on some of our individual members being recognized for their contributions throughout the year, so the Annual Business Meeting and Awards Luncheon is always a highlight of my SSP week. This was also my second time attending the EPIC Awards, and it was just as fun as the inaugural event last year! From sunset drinks to Jenny’s pink carpet hostessing to Jude and Kevin’s expert MCing to hearing the nominees and losing our voices cheering for the winners, it was a fantastic event from start to finish, and I look forward to starting planning for next year!
