In both North America and Europe, collaboration between the communities of scientific research and professional practice plays a pivotal role in the advancement of knowledge that benefits society at large. When it comes to technologies, especially artificial intelligence, the diversity of skills and the wealth of knowledge from research communities fuel creativity and drive innovation.

Moreover, the fusion of scientific and professional skills provides unprecedented opportunities to revolutionize society and drive the momentum of contributions by women. A change in mindset is taking place. A marked increase of success stories proves that supporting the participation of women in technological innovation, scientific research, and entrepreneurship contributes to economic prosperity.

In collaboration with IBM and Ivado, we recently conducted a research study on the progress of women in obtaining patents and protecting their innovations. Based on this study, we were able to propose actionable recommendations to promote and support women’s scientific vocations and increase their presence in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM).

At Makila AI, we work closely with a network of university researchers spanning diverse leading-edge disciplines. Our collaborative research projects have a profound global influence. Our predictive analysis and simulation solutions based on artificial intelligence empower businesses to identify areas for intervention and drive organizational transformation that fosters diversity and gender parity. We firmly believe that our inclusive approach to innovation, along with research collaboration and access to results, generates value and positions us competitively on the international stage.
