We are pleased to invite you to explore the ORCID 2023 Annual Report!
2023 was the second full year of our current strategic plan, From Vision to Value: ORCID’s 2022–2025 Strategic Plan, and we’re really starting to see the cumulative effects of the efforts we’ve made toward the four priorities we defined when we published it back in 2021:
- Increasing Value to Members
- Increasing Value to Researchers
- Increasing Global Participation
- Upholding Trust and Integrity
In addition, in 2023 we added a fifth theme:
5. Improving Staff Experience
The central thesis of ORCID’s current strategic plan is that by building stakeholder commitment to and engagement with ORCID, we will in turn create more value for researchers and members alike and drive further participation by (AND benefit to!) other stakeholders, perpetuating global adoption and reuse of ORCID data across the research ecosystem. To state this more simply, the more fully populated, sufficiently complete ORCID records and integrated systems there are, the more value that all stakeholders can gain from participating in ORCID.
We invite you to explore our Annual Report for 2023 and learn more about how we moved closer to our strategic goals, and to celebrate with us how support from our member organizations helped us to build on researcher delight, enable valuable connections, expand our global connections, and continue our maturation as an organization.
There is still time to register for our upcoming ORCID Community Town Hall on 20 March. We invite you to join us while we share the progress we made in 2023 and give a special preview of our plans for 2024. As always, there will be plenty of opportunity for you to engage with us: to provide feedback, make suggestions, and ask questions.
