The appreciation that analytics can improve their bottom lines or increase top lines significantly; has just started to come in. However, the large scale analytics implementations are beyond budgets for most of these companies.

SIBIA is working closely with MJunction and developing solutions that are being jointly offered to prospective clients in India.

Angshu is an Economist by training and is a Jadavpur University alumni. Krishna Iyer joined the company in 2014 as a co-founder.
