Our PMO office hires co-authors - domain experts and research students - against equity credit convertible to cash or equity shares of the project.
The domain experts breakdown the given topics into chapters [or building blocks], give them to the research students with a step by step research plan to follow and timeline to complete it.
The work done is then reviewed and approved by the relevant domain experts.

Revenue earned out of publication of the research papers or books is shared among the co-authors and other co-creators in the team equitably.
