History


Springer Nature was formed in 2015 by the merger of Nature Publishing Group, Palgrave Macmillan and Macmillan Education (held by Holtzbrinck Publishing Group) with Springer Science+Business Media (held by BC Partners). Plans for the merger were first announced on 15 January 2015.[2] The transaction was concluded in May 2015 with Holtzbrinck having the majority 53% share.[3]


The company originates from a number of journals and publishing houses, notably Springer-Verlag, which was founded in 1842 by Julius Springer in Berlin[4] (a relative of Axel and Bernhard who a century later founded Axel Springer SE and Springer Publishing[5]), Nature, first published on 4 November 1869,[6] and Macmillan Education, which goes back to Macmillan Publishers founded in 1869.


After the merger, former Springer Science+Business Media CEO Derk Haank became CEO of Springer Nature. When he retired by the end of 2017, he was succeeded by Daniel Ropers, the co-founder and long-time CEO of bol.com.[7]
