Transactions -- THE KES Open Access Library

KES Transactions is a book series containing the results of applied and theoretical research on a range of leading-edge topics. The series accepts conference proceedings, edited books and research monographs. Papers contained in KES Transactions may also appear in the KES Open Access Library (KOALA), our own online gold standard open access publishing platform.

Research Collaborations

The KES membership includes some of the best researchers at top universities around the world. Hence, KES is in an excellent position to form strong teams to work on collaborative research projects on leading edge topics.

Through the KES Institute of Knowledge Transfer members work together on research collaborations.

Dissemination of Research Results

It is essential for research groups to communicate the outcomes of their research to those that can make use of them. To obtain funding it is usually necessary to commit to dissemination activities during the project. But often academics do not want to undertake conference organisation. KES has specialist knowledge of how to run a conference to disseminate research results. Or a research project workshop can be run alongside one of our existing conferences to increase dissemination to an even wider audience.

Training and Short Courses

KES can provide live and online training courses on all the topics in its portfolio. KES has good relationships with leading universities and academics around the world, and can harness these to provide excellent personal development and training courses.

The KES-IKT Knowledge Alliance

KES works in partnership with the Institute of Knowledge Transfer (IKT), the sole accredited body dedicated to supporting and promoting the knowledge professional: those individuals involved in innovation, enterprise, and the transfer, sharing and exchange of knowledge. The IKT accredits the quality of innovation and knowledge transfer processes, practices activities, and training providers, and the professional status of its members.
