But what does this do? This sounds like a collection of buzzwords without an obvious purpose or problem to solve.

Researcher at University of ViennaFirst, it will be a place where you can find collaborators as a scientist (people from the same area of study) with whom you could potentially partner up to write a paper. Let's say you have an idea about a material you are working on, but you lack the technical means to investigate it. Scienceroot will enable you to search and contact someone which has the tools and works on similar topics as you do.
Second, the funding platform will enable you to search for funding opportunities which are suitable for your field/country. You won't need to search and waste time anymore on multiple websites for all sorts of offers. They will all be listed into one place.
Third, it will host a new model of academic journals which will be reward the authors and reviewers involved.
You'll find more information regarding the project on http://www.scienceroot.com (check the whitepaper) under Resources.
Cheers!
