It is liftoff for Pentify
Welcome to the first edition of the Pentify Insights newsletter! Each month, we'll share updates on our projects, highlight our partners' successes, and provide an intriguing insight or two from the world of data and analytics.
It is hard to believe that we have been up and running for almost 5 months! In that time, we have been out and about meeting with many people to find out more about how data and analytics is currently being leveraged to drive business outcomes. With what we’ve learnt and delivered thus far, we thought it was a good time to take a quick breather and share with you what has been achieved so far. We have been overwhelmed with the support we have received so far, from friends, family, ex-colleagues, and everyone in between, we cannot thank you all enough for the words of wisdom along the journey thus far.

We have been able to deliver some wins for clients so far, from efficiency gains through smarter use of tech, to upskilling the workforce through our data literacy programme, it has been extremely rewarding to help our clients achieve success. However, the job is not done. The challenge of becoming a data-driven enterprise remains, and we can help. The most common two challenges we have heard so far have been;
“We have so much data, but no idea how to use it!”
“There must be a better way to do this!”
We can help find solutions to these challenges. Our personable approach, underpinned by a focus on people and process, is proven to drive business success. Winter will see us continue with our mission to enable your business to harness the full potential of your data. It might be getting a bit cold outside, but we are just warming up!
