Our take
The European Medical Journal (EMJ) is a digital platform that shares the latest news and research across a bunch of medical fields. It creates free journals and highlights from big medical conferences so healthcare professionals can stay on top together. And everything it publishes is open access, so anyone, anywhere can learn from it.
The platform also runs EMJ GOLD, a platform connecting medical experts with pharmaceutical companies. The intention here is to share knowledge and encourage conversations that advance healthcare.
In recent years, EMJ has also received some major recognition, like the Queen's Award for Enterprise in 2022. Alongside this, it's teamed up with groups like the World Telehealth Initiative to democratise healthcare knowledge. With a number of strong partnerships and accolades to its name, it looks likely that EMJ will continue to make waves in the medical world.
