The discovery and application of scientific research is crucial to solving massive global problems in emissions reduction, environmental regeneration, renewable energy, food sufficiency, medicine and much more.
But the existing commercialisation regime for early-stage science research contains numerous hurdles. Some projects never make it beyond the lab!
On the other hand, funders struggle with discovery and engagement with projects in the early stages. Scientific intellectual property can be a highly illiquid asset that is burdened by bureaucratic processes and legal hurdles initially.
This discourages investment and collaboration when it is most needed.
Genius ReFi is exploring a new digital ecosystem based model for discovery, collaboration and funding of early-stage scientific research.
