Basel, Switzerland
About
Ascentium Talent is a Swiss AI company (Zug) developing an AI Avatar platform for pharmaceutical commercial training. Our proprietary MUAS® methodology produces auditable, behaviour-linked competency scores validated in a peer-reviewed APAC study (n=10,038 qualified practice records).
We are seeking a university or research institution partner to co-apply for an Innosuisse Start-up Innovation Project. The research focus would cover: (1) validation of AI-assessed behavioural competency frameworks in EMEA pharma contexts, (2) advancement of our agent-based architecture from TRL 3–4 toward TRL 5–6, and (3) development of EU AI Act-compliant assessment methodology for regulated sales environments.
Ideal partner profile: applied AI, learning science, or digital health research group with Innosuisse co-application experience.
