Notes & quotes

“Global Campus is used by investors to find experts for technical due diligence, by researchers to find the best journal to publish in and to find collaboration partners, and by non-academic staff in universities to scout internally and externally.”

“With the official launch in December 2022, Global Campus is still a young platform with lots of opportunities to grow!”

The platform emerged from the evolution of Impacter, which initially focused on providing automated feedback on grant proposals using AI and NLP technologies.

The integration of OpenAlex’s extensive scholarly database allowed for broader applications, leading to the development of Global Campus as a standalone platform.
