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 pesquisa groups to connect instantly with a diverse pool of freelancers, most of whom are PhDs.
"A Academia pode ser inacessível para muitas empresas", disse Ashmita Das, co-fundadora da Kolabtree. "Os esforços para promover a colaboração academia-indústria servem principalmente às corporações que podem financiar tais programas". Gostaríamos que Kolabtree facilitasse o trabalho até mesmo de pequenas empresas e organizações com cientistas e outros especialistas de alto nível".
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 saúde 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.
O programa beta da Kolabtree produziu várias histórias de sucesso, seja de uma ONG que contratou um pós-doutorado para coletar literatura sobre uma doença rara ou de um empresário que procurou um cientista de dados para detectar tendências na venda diária de produtos. A evidência da demanda por tal plataforma está nos mais de 2000 usuários que se inscreveram com a Kolabtree como freelancers. Dando mais luz a isto, Aaheli Roy Choudhary, um freelancer Kolabtree, diz, "Kolabtree oferece uma plataforma sólida para cientistas que fazem a transição da pesquisa ativa para a escrita e consultoria acadêmica".
