Knowble is a knowledge community for researchers to connect, communicate, and collaborate. Researchers are able to connect with their peers from other institutions with similar research interests as others. The demographic is researchers from any institution, company, or agency. The approach they are taking is similar to the way Facebook started out.

Knowble was started out of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Originally ImaginResearch, the company changed its name to Knowble. Knowble is currently located in Research Triangle Park, North Carolina.
