OXFORD—October 12, 2010—The European Academy of Management has partnered with Wiley-Blackwell, the scientific, technical, medical and scholarly publishing business of John Wiley & Sons, Inc. (NYSE: JWa), (NYSE: JWb), to publish their journal European Management Review, formerly published by Palgrave MacMillan. The first issue under the new partnership will publish in Spring 2011.

Hester Tilbury, Journals Commissioning Editor at Wiley-Blackwell says, "We are very energized to work with the European Academy of Management to take forward publishing plans for the European Management Review and develop new ways to support the business and management community. Wiley has a great many resources to make available to the Academy to help it fulfil its ambitions. The editorial team has a clearly defined strategy to attract the most diverse and original content and are skilled at working with the best scholars publishing in the field of management and business studies. We look forward to helping them lead global academic debate, expand their subscription base, and introduce online innovations for their valuable members."

European Management Review Editors Alfonso Gambardella and Maurizio Zollo, both at Bocconi University, remark, "The strategic advantage of being instantaneously present in all the important university and library databases in the world is priceless for a new journal like European Management Review. Wiley-Blackwell was able to present a thorough analysis of the citations for each article published, providing a forecast of possible future ISI ratings, and a promising IF growth strategy. They have a wonderful track record."

The partnership will significantly widen the international distribution of the journal, and Members of the Academy will receive a whole range of new services and benefits from 2011 onwards.
