Ownership and Management
Fernando Martins De Bulhão Publishing (FMDB) is an independent international academic publisher founded by a group of eminent professors and scientists from around the globe. The organization’s primary goal is to disseminate quality, peer-reviewed, open-access research across multiple disciplines, including Science, Management, Engineering, and Technology.
FMDB is managed and operated as a self-funded publishing entity, meaning it does not receive financial support from governments or external organizations. Its revenue model relies on Article Processing Charges (APC), which are transparently described on its website. The publisher’s activities are based primarily in the United States of America, as stated in the Terms and Conditions section, which specifies that U.S. law governs FMDB’s operations.
FMDB’s ownership and management details indicate that the publisher is directly overseen by its founding academic board and operates under its official corporate identity (FMDB). The publisher clearly distinguishes its journals and does not use misleading names or affiliations that could confuse authors or readers about its ownership structure.
