Davos, Switzerland – Following the launch of its flagship protocol Archon at World Economic Forum (WEF) Davos in 2023, PrivateAI.com, a Data-as-a-Service platform that permits scientists worldwide to monetize their research and datasets in the new AI economy, announced appointment of Marcello Mari as its Head of Partnerships at WEF 2024.
Marcello Mari, the CEO and Founder of SingularityDAO and part of the funding team of SingularityNET, will focus on strategic partnerships, market penetration and execution of the PGPT token launch, spearheading the Decentralized Science (DeSci) movement that uses web3 philosophy to modernize the global scientific community and unlock the value of research and data for the dawning AI-centric economy.
PrivateAI’s ambition is to foster monetization and advancement of world’s boldest scientific endeavors that may be siloed and underfunded by aggregating open-source crowdfunding, crowdsourcing and data marketplaces. By generating, scaling and monetizing data and research pertaining to rare or experimental niches of science, PrivateAI aims to create viability, acceleration and commercialization of new fields of science, in particular longevity, a transdisciplinary area that aims to make human life extension a reality. To empower scientists from any domain to pursue their research, an open-source constructor will be made available to develop and launch AI-powered applications on top of PrivateAI.
SingularityNET’s cofounders Ben Goertzel and David Hanson have launched a number of initiatives at the intersection of web3, AI and longevity and thus Marcello Mari’s addition to PrivateAI will permit the team to focus on the unifying aspects of web3, AI and global science to solve the challenge of longevity and other ambitious endeavors.

Private AI consists of a team of top entrepreneurs and scientists that will pave the way to a very bright future for the company. I look forward to support the team with my network, ideas and knowledge to bring Private Ai to new heights”
