Cactus Communications (CACTUS), a global technology company offering AI-driven and expert solutions for the scholarly publishing ecosystem, has announced a partnership with Emerald Publishing to provide enhanced author support services through the ChronosHub platform.
This collaboration broadens the assistance available to authors publishing with Emerald by enabling smooth access to infographic services designed to elevate research visibility. Through this partnership, authors will now be able to view pricing and purchase professionally crafted infographics directly within ChronosHub’s payment workflow.
Research shared with infographics has been shown to generate 2.3x more views and engagement, making them an essential tool for authors looking to strengthen the reach and influence of their work, while helping publishers create deeper and more sustainable connections with the global research community.
Nikesh Gosalia, Chief Partnership Officer at Cactus Communications, said, “Scholarly publishing is at a turning point where research needs to be both accessible and engaging for wider audiences. For more than two decades, CACTUS has supported authors in increasing the visibility of their work, and our collaboration with Emerald Publishing and ChronosHub is a meaningful move in that direction.”
Infographics offer authors and researchers an easy, streamlined way to communicate their findings, ultimately improving discoverability, engagement, and the overall impact of their publications.
Supporting this view, Stephanie Hull, Vice President, Publishing Development at Emerald Publishing, commented, “At Emerald, we are deeply committed to empowering our authors to create impact through their research. Integrating infographic services directly into our workflow will help authors connect with a broader audience and present their work more effectively beyond academia.”
Adding further, Romy Beard, Product Manager at ChronosHub, said, “At ChronosHub, our focus is on delivering the best possible experience for authors—intuitive, transparent, and aligned with modern digital expectations. Similar to an online shopping experience, authors can now seamlessly opt to purchase professionally designed infographics within the payment flow.”
By bringing together Emerald’s publishing strengths, CACTUS’s research promotion expertise, and ChronosHub’s innovative platform, this partnership introduces a unified way for authors to access high-impact infographics during the payment process—ensuring that high-quality research reaches, engages, and resonates with the audiences that matter most.
