Our take
Making sense of data can help companies unlock incredible opportunities, but it can be difficult to maximise its rewards. Ekimetrics solves this problem by acting as a data consultant to companies and helping them to secure immediate business gains through data science and AI.
The company is active in numerous countries, owing its success in part to its ability to offer an "industrialised" data science experience. This has allowed it to onboard big-name partners such as Facebook, Google and Snap, firmly establishing itself as a leading force in the data science sector.
With its impressive funding and recognition, Ekimetrics has made a strong name for itself so far. It continues to expand internationally, introduce new products, and has completed its first acquisition with the purchase of AI customer analytics platform Actable.
