Abstract

ResearchBroker is an online system, which connects academic researchers with real-world research opportunities at companies, organizations and government institutions. A number of companies and organizations don't have the expertise or the resources to conduct research studies on their application software/systems. Similarly PhD students are looking for research work in industry that also aligns with their academic research interests. ResearchBroker has been developed to connect these two parties. In this demo, we first introduce ResearchBroker system along-with its current usage and then discuss a prototype for an interactive browsing experience on ResearchBroker.
