techspert.io uses AI for next generation primary research and business intelligence.techspert.io started life in the healthcare sector, where co-founders Graham and David personally experienced how slow, laborious and costly it was to connect to the right people. On teaming up with Hari, and developing an AI-based solution to interrogateexpertise, they realised that their technology would add value across all sectors, globally, no matter how niche the expertise required. The team has now grown to include Computer Science PhDs, software developers, and experienced client relations managers, and the company is servicing large consultancies and private equity groups. They are, though, just at the start of their journey to democratise access to knowledge for a better world, and they are guided by their core values of curiosity, empathy, commitment, and ambition as they strive to revolutionise knowledge exchange.
