BRILLIANCE CONNECT

The platform for Global Collaboration and Innovation

Welcome to Brilliance Connect

Let's build community together

"94% of tech execs consider innovation partnerships as a necessary strategy"

Harvard Business Review - July 14, 2022

We built Brilliance Connect to address the challenges our community faces

How It Works

Set up your profile

Describe your business, what you’re looking for, and how you want to collaborate. This powers the recommendation engine

Share what you need—funding, partners, co-inventors, or support for a project. Your posts flow into compatible members’ dashboards.

Choose the topics and opportunity types you care about so you get notified when relevant people, projects, or IP show up.

Add your intellectual property to the marketplace and repository to signal it’s open for collaboration, licensing, or purchase.

Use recommendations, search, groups, and forums to reach out, start conversations, and turn interest into real agreements.

Cultivate new partnerships

Discussion Forums

Join focused discussion forums to share ideas, ask questions, and solve real problems together. As you contribute, you’ll naturally discover collaborators with shared interests and complementary skills.

Private Messaging

Contact other members directly to explore potential partnerships. Use direct outreach to follow up on promising connections you’ve discovered elsewhere on the platform and turn shared interest into real conversations and deals.

Member Groups

Create groups around specific interests or industries so members can quickly find like-minded people, compare notes, and turn shared focus into real collaboration opportunities.

Industry Trends

Host conversations on emerging industry trends to keep the community ahead of the curve and surface members who share your focus—and may be ideal collaborators.

What membership Brings

The Brilliance community brings small and medium businesses, enterprises, technology transfer offices, government agencies, investors, and ecosystem builders onto one platform.
Use smart recommendations to find partners, a collaboration hub to turn ideas into deals, and an IP marketplace to license, buy, or monetize your portfolio—including IP-backed funding and royalty sales.
With built-in skill-building courses and certificates, it’s where innovation, capital, and execution actually meet.

Membership Plans

Basic

With the Basic plan, you get full access to the Brilliance ecosystem: the entire community, the IP marketplace (to list your own IP or browse live opportunities), and the collaboration hub where you can post or respond to projects and partnerships. You can also create your own public or private groups and discussion forums to organize teams, deals, or topic-focused communities.

Plus

With the Plus plan, you get everything in Basic plus AI superpowers. Our recommendation engine automatically surfaces both obvious and unexpected IP matches for you, and you unlock the RAI patent assistant to search, understand, and explore IP on and off the marketplace.

Pro

The Pro plan takes everything in Plus a step further with a concierge outreach service. Our team actively helps you find the connections you’re looking for—identifying targets, reaching out to specific people or organizations at your request, and presenting your opportunities on your behalf to open doors and start serious conversations.
