The research projects arising from the new alliance will focus on artificial intelligence, data science and operations research and serve to enhance the collaborative web platform developed by INNODIRECT. The partnership will also support training for future data scientist and the recruitment of emerging experts in a range of fields.<\/p>\n<p>INNODIRECT is a bias-free collaborative brainstorming and business matching platform. It fosters discussions and links that transcend identity-, hierarchy- and sector-based barriers and habits to foster a collaborative environment built on inclusion, objectivity, innovative thinking and meritocracy. INNODIRECT\u2019s innovative approach sets itself apart from current platforms by providing secure anonymity: supervised, facilitated and anonymous discussions between authenticated users. Human validators oversee each message to ensure its courtesy, clarity, relevance and the preservation of the anonymity of those involved. The validation process plays a critical role in obstructing the trolls that plague online discussion forums. Human facilitators encourage sharing to foster the achievement of concrete results.<\/p>\n<p>The partnership with IVADO will support the partial automation of the validation and facilitation processes, accelerating message publication, moving discussions forward and thus constituting a key lever for platform growth. Artificial intelligence will also make it possible to integrate an automated suggestions services based on similarity of interests and user compatibility to create collaborations that are outside of the box.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cInnovation demands an environment in which ideas can be expressed without criticism or fear of judgment for inclusive, open and fair debate. The ensuing unbiased collaborations are a catalyst for innovative solutions. It is possible to harness data science and artificial intelligence to partially automate the validation and facilitation processes and foster collaborations based on common needs, as well as the common ground between individuals.
