Data Science? We were collecting tons of data but not using it well!!!

Data Science?

We were collecting tons of data but not using it well!!!

Sachin Sinha's interest in data science was piqued while he was working as a senior product manager at Microsoft, and when he moved to Amazon, he realized how much data was being collected every day.“Data was increasing every day, but we couldn't extract information from it properly. We were heavily reliant on human operations,“ says the IIT-Kanpur alumnus. So, in 2012, he started work on a research platform, IQLECT, to gather real-time data for developers. Within a year, he'd had 30,000 downloads without doing any marketing. In 2015, he decided to quit as CTO of Limeroad and focus entirely on IQLECT as a data analytics platform. He's got $3 million in funding from Exfinity Ventures, and IQLECT works with small enterprises in India. Sachin is looking to shift to the US in the next three months and go global.
