We get it, but #R2RConf tries VERY hard not to be seen as (or be) 'just another publishing conference'; hence the hearty correction!
It is so important to for scholcomms improvements to get librarians, academics, institutions, funders... into the centre of the conversation.

The joy (and pain) of #R2RConf is having stakeholders from across the landscape in the room together, so we can try to understand each other's challenges and frictions. Going from the in-silo comfort of 'someone else should' to the discomfort of 'how can we do this with them?'

Booo!
Actually #R2RConf 2025 participants are 44% Publishers and about half of those are non-profit or Society Publishers.
Publishing 44%
Technology 19%
Consulting 12%
Libraries 11%
Research 3%
Other 10%

We are too! But the response to #R2RConf is usually very positive....

Thanks Ian!
