PARTNERSHIP STORY

A Partnership Built
to Last

Academy of Management

The Academy of Management represents one of the most meaningful and ambitious partnerships we have built — a deep, ongoing collaboration to reimagine how one of the world's largest scholarly communities leverages knowledge, connects its community across 120+ countries, and modernises the workflows that advance management science.

HOW WE PARTNER

A Model for Long-Term
AI Transformation

Long-term AI transformation is about more than technical complexity and readiness. It demands strong attention to organisational vision, member pain points, adoption potential, time to value, ethics, security, and governance. Because technology alone doesn't transform organisations — people, strategy, and the right foundations do.

EXPLORE AND PRIORITISE

We began by mapping every area of AOM's work that AI could meaningfully touch. Then we set clear priorities. Then we tested the technology.

Working with AI products demands an iterative approach: we design workflows to run experiments, test in practice, learn from real usage, and improve continuously. Development moves in stages — each one informing the next.

MODULAR BY DESIGN

We build interconnected building blocks of a platform, each capable of delivering value on its own.

Each new capability strengthens the platform as a whole giving AOM the flexibility to prioritise which products and features to build, sequence development at their own pace, and scale without disrupting what already works.

BUILT TO SCALE

Every module is designed to connect. Shared data, models, and components flow across the platform — so the system becomes more capable with every addition, not just bigger.

The goal is a unified AI platform where community, content, and workflows reinforce each other, and where the value delivered to members compounds over time.

FULL LIFECYCLE

We are present from the first discovery session through to live deployment, adoption, and continuous evolution.

We don't hand off. We stay.

THE VISION

One Unified,
Comprehensive Platform.

Everything we are building with AOM is designed to become part of a single, unified platform — one that serves the entire scholarly lifecycle. The platform connects community, content, and workflows: helping members discover and engage with research, enabling AOM to reach far broader audiences with its knowledge, and supporting the people and processes that advance management science.

What makes it powerful is not any single capability — it is how the parts work together. Shared data, models, and components flow across the platform, so every new feature strengthens the whole. Each building block we deliver today creates the foundation for what comes next, and the platform grows more valuable with every addition.

IN FOCUS

Member Navigator

AOM's Annual Meeting is one of the most important gatherings in management research — and one of the most demanding to navigate. Thousands of sessions, dozens of venues, hundreds of meaningful people to connect with, and only a few intense days to do it all.

We built the Member Navigator to change that. It is a platform and app that gives every member a personalised, intelligent companion — helping them find the right sessions, the right people, and the right opportunities at every stage of their AOM journey.

Summaries
Generation Tool

AOM publishes some of the most rigorous management research in the world. Research this valuable deserves the widest possible reach. Yet for most entrepreneurs, managers, leaders, students, or policymakers, a full journal article is simply not where they will start. The Summaries Generation Tool was built to bridge that gap, translating complex scientific findings into accessible, practical narratives that carry the same intellectual integrity in a form that far more people can actually use.

One of the most important decisions in building this tool was not just what AI does — but how it does it, and where human judgment takes over. We designed a full production workflow that makes AI responsible for generating the initial draft and structuring the content. At every subsequent step, humans are in the loop, responsible for accuracy, voice, editorial judgement, and final approval before anything is published.

WHO WE SERVE

Designed for the Scholarly
Community

We work with scholarly publishers, professional associations, universities, and research institutions that want to do more with what they already have.

To leverage their content and knowledge more powerfully.

To reach audiences they have never been able to serve at scale before.

To strengthen and grow their communities.

And to modernise the workflows that support their scholars, members, and stakeholders.
