Basic information

Entrepreneur
Coming from Switzerland
Working at DB4ALL (Databases & Information Extraction Start-up)

Bio

David Portabella PhD ++++++++ I have recently finished a PhD at EPFL on how to improve user confidence in decision support systems for electronic catalogs, e.g. how to assist in shopping, deciding where to go for holidays or deciding your vote in an election. That is, how to make the users feel confident that they have found the right product in your catalog. It helps to achieve a higher purchase conversion rate. Start-up +++++++++ DB4ALL is a Start-Up on the domain of Databases, Decision Support Systems and Information Extraction. Our aim is to promote the use of databases to end-users and small businesses. By databases we refer to the content (list of books, movies, restaurants, jobs...) rather than the software. DB4ALL provides services for extracting data from websites into a structured form, in a time record and at very competitive fees. Opportunity +++++++++ We are currently looking for a new member to complete our dream team!! If you are interested, talk to us at the LIFT conference!!! Mobile phone number: +4178 687 5554.

Interests: business, entrepreneur, decision support tools, human computer interaction, electronic catalogs, e-commerce, databases, multi-attribute decision theory, preference elicitation, decision accuracy, decision confidence, information extraction.

Conference(s) attended: Lift08
