Springer Nature

Springer Nature is a research, education, and professional publisher that provides printed materials, books, journals, and resources for researchers and scientists. It is a global, progressive enterprise built on a series of trusted and respected brands, including Springer, founded in 1842, and Macmillan, founded in 1843. Nearly two centuries of progress in science and education have helped shape our current endeavors. Research and learning remain the cornerstones of advancement, and we will continue to open the doors of discovery through trusted brands and innovative products and services. Springer Nature was established in May 2015 through the merger of Nature Publishing Group, Macmillan Education Group, and Springer Science + Business Media. The main shareholders of Springer Nature are Holtzbrinck Publishing Group and BC Partners. The Stuttgart-based family business Holtzbrinck holds a 53% majority stake.
