Collokia Raises 1.3 Million in Seed Funding

"Knowledge workers spend a significant amount of time searching for information, either through standard search engines or through specialized tools", said Pablo Brenner, co-founder of Collokia. "In many situations, co-workers have already searched for similar information, but the work is recreated because there is no knowledge or experience sharing, leaving them unaware. Collokia s platform automatically identifies such collaboration opportunities and eliminates the time wasted on redundant research efforts. For example, when searching for a specific subject, Collokia alerts users to similar activities that have already been completed, offering recommendations and connecting them with others within the organization that have expertise on the information they are seeking." In contrast with most collaboration platforms where sharing information requires extra effort by the employee, Collokia s knowledge mapping, collection and distribution is completely transparent and effortless for all involved parties.
