About

Ceebios is a study and expertise center in France dedicated to the deployment of biomimicry. As a national network of industrial, academic, and institutional actors, Ceebios is at the forefront of promoting ecological and societal transition through biomimicry. This approach seeks to emulate the adaptation strategies of living organisms, viewing them as the result of 3.8 billion years of research and development. By drawing inspiration from these strategies, Ceebios aims to foster sustainable innovation across various fields, from technology to organizational performance.

  • Pioneering the deployment of biomimicry in France, promoting sustainable innovation.
  • Efficiently gathering, filtering, and updating their database by using cutting edge technology.

Challenge

Ceebios, as a collective interest cooperative company (SCIC), is on a mission to construct a large-scale biomimetics-specialized database of scholarly works. The challenge involves downloading 30 million open-access full-text PDFs and applying proprietary filters to select relevant papers. Additionally, they aim to update this database monthly with the latest publications, which would amount to about 500K requests at the end of each month. To achieve this, they would require robust and efficient web scraping tools.

Impact

By partnering with The Bright Initiative and utilizing market-leading tools by Bright Data, Ceebios can efficiently gather and filter the necessary data to build their specialized database. This database will serve as a foundational resource for biomimetic research and innovation in France, promoting sustainable and eco-responsible solutions inspired by nature. The continuous updating of the database ensures that the latest research is always accessible, driving forward the field of biomimicry and its applications.
