Morressier is a technology company that builds a comprehensive publishing platform focused on scholarly communications, serving publishers and scientific societies. Its flagship product, Journal Manager, supports the entire pre-publishing workflow—from managing hybrid and virtual conferences to journal submissions and peer-review processes—while emphasizing research integrity and workflow efficiency. The platform addresses challenges in scholarly publishing by integrating tools for journal management, integrity checks, conference proceedings, and event content management, helping publishers deliver trusted, high-quality scientific content at scale. Morressier has shown strong growth momentum, culminating in its acquisition by Molecular Connections in early 2025, which aims to combine expertise and technology to further innovate in the scholarly publishing ecosystem[1][2][3].
Morressier was founded in 2014 by Sami Benchekroun, Justus Weweler, and Rino Montiel, who shared a vision of transforming scholarly communications through technology. The idea emerged from the need to improve the efficiency, fairness, and trustworthiness of the scientific publishing process, especially in the early stages of research dissemination such as conferences. Early traction came from providing hybrid and virtual conference solutions, which evolved into a full end-to-end platform supporting the entire pre-publishing journey. The company expanded globally with offices in Berlin, London, and Washington DC, reflecting its growing influence in the academic publishing sector[1][3][4].
Morressier rides the trend of digital transformation and modernization in scholarly publishing, a sector historically dominated by legacy platforms struggling to meet modern demands. The timing is critical as open access publishing, research integrity, and efficient dissemination of early-stage research gain prominence. Morressier’s platform addresses market needs for scalable, integrity-focused, and user-friendly workflows, positioning it as a competitive alternative to incumbents like Aries and ScholarOne. Its acquisition by Molecular Connections, a leader in AI-driven scholarly publishing innovation, further strengthens its role as a hub for integrated publishing infrastructure, supporting a shift toward more transparent and efficient research communication[1][5].
Going forward, Morressier is expected to deepen its integration with Molecular Connections’ AI and semantic technologies, enhancing automation and decision support in publishing workflows. Trends such as increasing demand for research transparency, open science, and hybrid scientific events will shape its growth. The company’s influence is likely to expand as it helps publishers adapt to evolving editorial requirements and industry complexities, potentially becoming a central platform for scholarly communication infrastructure. Its commitment to research integrity and scalable technology positions it well to lead innovation in academic publishing’s digital future[1][5].
