Under the guidance of the Outline of the Development Plan for the Greater Bay Area of Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao, the Macao science and technology industry will seize the opportunity of the times, rely on the motherland and face the world. Under the guidance of the Macau Federation of Science and Technology and the Macau University of Science and Technology, the government of the Macao Special Administrative Region approved the establishment of Macao's first international academic exchange platform with science and technology as its content, Macao Scientific Publishers (MOSPBS).

Under the guidance of  Macao Technology General Association, international science and technology innovation Expo as a platform. MOSPBS is committed to building a fair, just, open and free platform for the dissemination of scientific knowledge, with an open and inclusive Macao as a bridge, we provide services for authors from all over the world and from different backgrounds, and strive to establish a new knowledge platform linking the world and China for scientific and technological exchange and mutual benefit.

Macao Scientific Publishers was founded on September 1, 2021. MOSPBS is committed to build a fair, just, open and free spread scientific knowledge dissemination platform, the youth science and technology innovation, primary health education, basicscientific growth of three areas as the main direction of struggle, to open inclusive of Macao as a bridge, in order to establish communication world with China's science and technology exchange and pratt & Whitney new knowledge platform and mutual efforts.
