London, 20 May 2016: Kolabtree, the London-based on-demand platform offering access to qualified scientific professionals, today announced the successful completion of its beta program. As the first platform to harness the growing global pool of scientific experts, it allows businesses and recherche groups to connect instantly with a diverse pool of freelancers, most of whom are PhDs.
"Le monde universitaire peut être inaccessible pour de nombreuses entreprises", a déclaré Ashmita Das, cofondatrice de Kolabtree. "Les efforts visant à favoriser la collaboration entre le monde universitaire et l'industrie servent principalement les entreprises qui peuvent financer de tels programmes. Nous aimerions que Kolabtree permette même aux petites entreprises et organisations de travailler facilement avec des scientifiques et autres experts de haut niveau."
Kolabtree lies at the center of several ongoing trends. Businesses large and small require advanced expertise and outside knowledge to support digital and non-technical innovation. Even as stakeholders engaged in social problems like climate change, food production, and soins de santé are increasingly looking at instant access to specialist expertise, research budgets have flattened or shrunk in many Western countries, leading to an expanding workforce of highly trained scientific professionals. Kolabtree’s mission is democratize access to scientific talent by helping business and industry tap into this talent pool without incurring the heavy costs of recruiting, retaining, and training.
Le programme bêta de Kolabtree a donné lieu à plusieurs exemples de réussite, qu'il s'agisse d'une ONG qui a engagé un post-doctorant pour collecter de la documentation sur une maladie rare ou d'un propriétaire d'entreprise qui recherchait un spécialiste des données pour repérer les tendances dans les ventes quotidiennes de produits. Les plus de 2 000 utilisateurs qui se sont inscrits sur Kolabtree en tant qu'indépendants témoignent de la demande pour une telle plateforme. Pour en savoir plus, Aaheli Roy Choudhary, un freelance de Kolabtree, déclare : "Kolabtree offre une plateforme solide pour les scientifiques qui passent de la recherche active à la rédaction académique et au conseil."
