As already disclosed to our community, the RAUSP Management Journal has recently been included in the list of the Scopus indexer, which is "the largest abstract and citation database of peer-reviewed literature: scientific journals, books and conference proceedings" (Scopus, 2019). We are pleased to be part of the Scopus collection now. This achievement can be considered as a stepping stone in the consolidation of our journal globally, and it demonstrates a consistent work in following the best international practices, consistently upgraded and more and more restrictive.It is also known that the internationalisation span in academic publishing is a critical factor in evaluating the quality of scientific journals. The more international the journal gets, the higher the impact of the journal in the international community.This means that for a journal to remain as part of an indexer, it is necessary to be constantly working to increase (or at least maintain) the journal's relevance, regardless of the impact metrics (Scopus H-index, JCR or any other) [1]. Figure 1 shows data reported by Scopus for the RAUSP Management Journal. We can notice a growing trend in the number of international citations in the period analysed (from 2013 to 2018). In 2018, 41.5 per cent of RAUSP Management Journal citations come from international journals, much more than 4.2 per cent in 2013, before we started our internationalisation process. According to this trend, the international citations will soon outnumber the domestic citations to the journal.For us (and other Brazilian and emerging countries' journals) to continue in this positive trend, two actions seem critical. The first one is to demonstrate the relevance of Brazilian research published in RAUSP Management Journal and other Brazilian journals. A premise underlying this strategy regards the extensiveness of the topics addressed in these journals, i.e. how they contribute to the construction of global knowledge. The broader the subjects of the papers, the larger the readership of the articles, which emphasises the relevance of the journal. In this sense, if this premise is correct, there will be a tendency to suppress or significantly diminish articles that deal with local, regional or idiosyncratic subjects, which present less attractiveness to the mainstream journals or, at least, for the scope of international journals. An alternative is the existence of local niche journals that would cope with these specific contexts. The extensive list of regional journals is evidence of this coexistence, especially in Brazil, where higher education institutions are encouraged to have their own journals. In other
