Colwiz Launched Through the Isis Software Incubator
9 March 2011
Colwiz (Collective Wizdom) gives researchers an integrated suite of tools to collaborate efficiently and quickly with colleagues scattered around the world and working in a variety of different research areas.
As an emerging project, colwiz won support from the Oxford University Challenge Seed Fund, a Dragon's Den style competition organised by Isis Innovation, which recognises the best ideas coming out of the University.
Tom Hockaday, MD of Isis Innovation, said: "We are delighted that colwiz – a solution built by academics for academics – is already widely deployed within the University and proving to be a great success. Research is the University’s core business and so a platform to support research from a start-up is clearly a strong proposition."
Members of academic institutions from US and UK universities can sign up for free and start using the colwiz platform.
