Independent research and innovation news portal for Czech institutions
VědaVýzkum.cz aggregates research, development, and innovation information for Czech audiences, with editorial and research teams tracking grant calls, funding compliance, and commercialization pathways. The hiring velocity is accelerating across research (9 roles) and mid-to-senior talent, while the tech stack (R, Python, DSpace, Fedora, OpenRefine) reflects data-heavy curation work typical of research information systems — suggesting the portal is evolving beyond news aggregation into research metadata management and grant-tracking infrastructure.
VědaVýzkum.cz is an independent news and information platform focused on research, development, and innovation ecosystems in Czechia. The portal publishes timely, structured information on research projects, IP protection, technology transfer, and commercialization for researchers and institutional stakeholders. Operating since 2016 from Prague with 2–10 employees, the organization combines editorial coverage with underlying research data operations, managing grant project information, funding compliance tracking, and researcher-facing tools. Active projects span grant administration (GA ČR, NCIP VAVAI), applied research (cultivated meat, RNA therapeutics, tumor immunology), and platform development (one-stop-shop for researchers). The team addresses core pain points in the Czech research ecosystem: grant-call monitoring, funding compliance, commercialization of research results, and research data quality.
The platform runs on R, Python, DSpace, Fedora, OpenRefine, SQL, Git, and Bash for research data management and curation, plus Microsoft 365 and Office for operations.
Active projects include grant-project tracking (GA ČR, NCIP VAVAI), applied research (cultivated meat, RNA therapeutics, tumor biology), and a one-stop-shop platform for researchers.
