Underline Science , the premier virtual conference venue for events in science, medicine and academia, has announced an investment from ProQuest, a global leader in educational technology. The investment from ProQuest will enable Underline to extend the reach of its video platform for scientific and scholarly conferences, redoubling the impact of the knowledge, and providing opportunities to accelerate scientific discovery.
Earlier in 2020, Underline launched the world's first live-streaming platform specifically designed for scientific and academic conferences, lectures, and research discussions. Underline's mission is to capture and disseminate scientific knowledge through video, making it globally accessible by enriching and preserving both virtual and hybrid conference content. Through Underline, conferences – physical and virtual – can reach new global audiences, while conference attendees have the flexibility to watch and re-watch any lecture any place, any time.
Underline enriches hosted conferences and lectures with transcriptions, real-time language translations, DOIs, MARC records and presenters' slides and profiles. In addition to enabling conference participants to connect with speakers, lectures can be easily cited, shared and searched, thus turning presentations into sources of collaboration and conversation. With a custom-built virtual conference platform, Emmy Award-winning production team, and exclusive digital library – Underline is becoming an important destination for research, teaching and learning.
