Research Data Marketplace

Turn Your Research Data Into Money

The Problem

The Current Research Ecosystem is Broken

Every year, millions of researchers publish their work in journals like Elsevier, Springer Nature, and MDPI —
but they earn ₹0, while publishers generate massive profits.

Researchers face:
❌ No financial reward
❌ Lack of recognition beyond citations
❌ No incentive to do micro-research
❌ Datasets that are lost, unused, or hidden inside PDFs
❌ Zero connection to industry needs
❌ Limited opportunities for students & PhDs

At the same time…

Industries urgently need high-quality datasets for:

• AI training

• Drug discovery

• Clinical trial analysis

• Market research

• Scientific modeling

• Healthcare innovation

But they cannot find reliable, structured scientific data.

The Solution

 

IEEARC Research Data Marketplace

 

A platform where researchers can earn from every dataset they create.

We have created an ecosystem where any researcher can publish structured data and earn 40–60% royalty every time industry buys it.

With IEEARC, researchers can:

✓ Publish datasets
✓ Earn per download
✓ Showcase commercial impact
✓ Build a global scientific profile
✓ Attract industry collaborations
✓ Monetize micro-research (small but meaningful datasets)

What Kind of Data Can Be Submitted?

You can publish almost any scientifically valid, non-sensitive data:

✓ Clinical trial datasets (public/de-identified)

✓ Pharma & drug discovery datasets
✓ Gene, protein, biomarker, pathway datasets
✓ Bioinformatics / wet lab data
✓ Literature-curated scientific datasets
✓ Chemoinformatics datasets
✓ Environmental, agricultural, ecological data
✓ ML-ready datasets
✓ Survey-based scientific data
✓ Disease burden datasets
✓ Market analytics for healthcare
✓ Nanotechnology, biotech, chemistry datasets
✓ Meta-analysis summaries
✓ Systematic review datasets

If it has research value, it has monetization potential.
