Statistics & Decision-Making Named Among the Top 100 Journals for Digital Impact

From September 23 to 24, 2016, the 4th China (Wuhan) Journal Publishing Expo was held with great success at the Wuhan International Convention & Exhibition Center. Leaders from China’s State Administration of Press, Publication, Radio, Film and Television, as well as officials from Hubei Province and Wuhan City, attended the opening ceremony of the forum. Chris (UK), President of the International Publishers Association, delivered a keynote speech. The expo’s flagship forum, the "China Journal Media International Innovation and Development Forum," was jointly organized by the Expo Organizing Committee and the China Periodical Association, making it the most prestigious annual high-level industry summit in the national journal sector. Additionally, the "Top 100 Chinese Journals by Digital Influence 2016," hosted by this year’s Journal Publishing Expo Organizing Committee, highlighted the growing impact of digital media in the journal industry.
