PeerCommerce has partnered with the University of Pittsburgh to promote student consultancy and personal business development. To do so, PeerCommerce interacts with the local network of students, businesses, and community organizers that share its goal.

Innovation can come from anywhere, but business development is hindered by technical know-how and financial ability. Forming a competitive business requires cross-functional expertise in multiple technologies like visual design. content marketing, and analytics software. The expense of outsourcing each skill repels young business owners.

PeerCommerce envisions a secure interfaceable semantic search database. Business-owner users post their personal work opportunities, then the local community of student-professionals apply to the projects by sharing their portfolios. Community-organizers like university administrators and nonprofit-institutions are able to choose projects to sponsor and oversee.
