In high-income countries, scientific equipment is often stored unused after its usage time in research laboratories. Older devices are eventually discarded, even though they are still functional.
In low-income countries, schools and universities are lacking the funds to acquire exactly such devices for adequate training of talented students. The resulting “brain-drain” to other countries hinders the self-development in such regions.
EquipSent seeks to bridge these two worlds by directly matching donors of scientific equipment with those in need. As an intermediary between both parties, we reduce administrative effort and help organize the shipping, installation and legal contracting. Expenses will be covered to a minor, affordable extent by the recipient, and majorly by industrial sponsors in return of CSR, new markets and advertisement.
