Our take
Effective data analytics are essential for organizations to optimize user experience and drive revenue. Born out of the 2012 Obama election campaign, Civis Analytics uses cloud-based solutions and data science to help organizations make informed, data-driven decisions. The company also utilized an in-house paid-media operation to help drive the Biden campaign to success in the 2020 election.
Looking ahead, Civis is now focused on investing in product innovation, expanding its data science capabilities, and broadening its team across sales, product, and technical functions. With a vision to continue pushing the boundaries of data-driven success, the company is in an exciting position to build on its impressive track record and grow even further.
