Launching now · The Research Collaboration Index

Reputation says Harvard.
Collaboration says Hong Kong.

Reputation is what others say. Collaboration is what a university does, and now it is measured. Drawn from 26.8 million co-authorship records, the index reveals what reputation surveys and citations cannot see: who a university builds knowledge with, and the partners and funding routes to build on next.

Anyone can list a grant. GRP matches you with the researchers and institutions worldwide running compatible work, the consortia that win the biggest cross-border grants. That is the part the funding databases cannot do.

One platform, three ways to win

Built for researchers, research offices and institutions

For researchers

Find live funding, track deadlines, identify compatible collaborators and get your work discovered by the people who can fund, cite and partner with it.

For research offices

Give your teams a shared view of funding opportunities, researcher demand and the emerging bid pipeline, and cut duplicated manual searching.
