Hosted by the Newcastle University Library Research Services, this conference brings together researchers, data scientists, and policymakers from across the UK to discuss the transition toward fully open academic ecosystems. The 2026 edition emphasizes the practical implementation of "Open Data" and "Open Access" protocols in the context of the upcoming REF 2029 requirements.
Participants will engage in high-level keynote sessions delivered by pioneers in the Open Research movement, followed by breakout workshops focusing on research data management and the ethical implications of AI in scholarly publishing. The event serves as a platform for sharing innovative case studies where open practices have led to increased citation impact and public engagement. With a focus on interdisciplinary collaboration, the conference aims to break down silos and foster a culture where knowledge is shared freely for the benefit of global society. It is a critical event for any academic looking to stay ahead of the curve in institutional compliance and research integrity.
