Join EAI’s Free, Inclusive Community for Collaborative Innovation.
EAI is the world’s largest open ICT society active in more than 160 countries.
EAI helps more than 250,000 researchers around the world achieve progress through
collaboration, recognition, and knowledge sharing. EAI is delivering progress through
collaboration.
We do this through free membership, a platform of innovative collaboration tools, our
publishing services, and our global conferences, all of which have been built to encourage,
mentor, and shape a researcher’s journey to success.
The free exchange of ideas and resources – whether through membership, open library,
EUDL.eu, or community initiatives – reinforces our commitment to an ecosystem where
opportunities and growth are available to all. Just like the Möbius strip, there is no beginning or
end to progress, ensuring that everyone moves forward together in a collaborative, ever evolving
loop of innovation.

Progress Through Collaboration
We believe that the power of collective engagement, sharing talent and knowledge will
accelerate individual progress and enable us to harness technology for the benefit of society.
Join us as we continue to build the tools and community for the world’s largest, open, ICT
society.
EAI, The World’s Largest Open ICT Society
We help more researchers in more parts of the world make progress in their careers, be
recognized, and feel part of a community. We do this through our free membership, a platform
of innovative collaboration tools, publishing, and our global conferences, all of which have been
built to encourage, mentor, and shape a researcher’s journey to success.
We Level the Playing Field
We see ourselves as an antidote to the elitist approach to research, publishing, and
conferences – an approach that is often inaccessible to researchers in developing countries. We
want to halt this disenfranchisement by offering free membership to our society with its unique
platform of engagement tools to help researchers stop being isolated and start communicating,
connecting, and collaborating.

Transforming How Research Is Done
By connecting researchers to our suite of community collaboration tools, EAI is transforming the
way research is done, evaluated, and rewarded. One key benefit of this new approach is early
community recognition – researchers can give and receive feedback on abstracts and get
recognition through a unique system of ‘credits for participation’ that enables their progress to
be visible and recognized.
The Route To Easier Publishing
The publication of research papers provides the opportunity for researchers to share their
knowledge, achieve recognition, success, and progress their academic career. EAI, through its
unique partnership with Springer, supports this dissemination of knowledge through various
publications, including journals, books, and conference proceedings.
Conferences That Amplify Community
As well as successfully running over 200 conferences around the world EAI can use its
community platform to connect researchers with similar interests to conferences where they
can share knowledge, network, and increase their profile, identify members with relevant
experience who can then take a role in an organizing committee or provide informed feedback
on a paper for example.
