Domo Customer Unilever Wins the Ventana Research Digital Leadership Award

Domo Customer Unilever Wins the Ventana Research Digital Leadership Award

Unilever’s Alessandro Ventura Recognized for his Leadership in the Application of Analytics with Domo to Support Company’s Nationwide Pandemic Relief Effort

SILICON SLOPES, Utah–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Domo (Nasdaq: DOMO) today announced that its customer Unilever, the multinational consumer goods company, and Alessandro Ventura, CIO and Head UniOps Market Operations of Unilever North America, was named the winner with Domo of Ventana Research’s prestigious Digital Leadership Award in Analytics. This update follows Domo’s announcement of the two companies being named Finalist for the award.

Ventana Research’s Digital Leadership Awards showcase the leadership and use of business applications or technology that contribute significantly to improved efficiency, productivity and performance. In the category of Analytics, the winners are the company and technology provider that best exemplifies leadership in any use or application of analytics across business and/or IT.

In a long and rich tradition as a pioneer and innovator of consumer goods, Unilever understood the unique opportunity to create positive change during the global pandemic. Unilever launched the United for America initiative in March 2020 that culminated in a National Day of Service in May. The effort produced $25 million in goods and services that were donated to help the hardest-hit communities by COVID-19 recover, rebuild and reimagine their futures.

Domo supported this effort by building Unilever’s data management system for United for America on Domo’s modern analytics and BI platform. With Domo, the Unilever team created and extended multiple live data insights across the United for America website, giving their project partners and stakeholders real-time information into how resources were benefiting communities. This real-time data helped keep the project’s nearly 100 partners engaged in the ongoing program and working towards its success. It also provided internal Unilever stakeholders such as brand managers, the ability to see how their specific products were being distributed to relief efforts across the country. The system integrated Domo’s coronavirus tracker with aggregated and interactive data, which was crucial in determining the communities of highest COVID-19 impact at any given moment.

“The global pandemic has highlighted the need for real-time actionable data across all sectors of the economy, including philanthropic efforts like Unilever’s United for America initiative. Domo excels in moments like these, when widespread access to a broad, and often new, set of data sources, can provide the intelligence needed to accelerate an initiative’s success,” said Josh James, founder and CEO, Domo. “Congratulations to Ale and his team for this well-deserved win; it is an honor for Domo have played a part in putting data to work for this very important program.”

“The analytics supporting Unilever’s United for America program demonstrated the value of shared real-time insights getting resources to the places they were needed most,” said David Menninger, SVP and research director, Ventana Research. “Domo’s cloud-based system enabled stakeholders in various organizations and various locations to access and share the same set of information helping the initiative accomplish its objectives. Congratulations to all involved.”

E*TRADE Politics & Portfolios Study Reveals Economic and Market Views Among Republican and Democrat Investors Post Election

E*TRADE Politics & Portfolios Study Reveals Economic and Market Views Among Republican and Democrat Investors Post Election

While Republicans and Democrats diverge on economic outlook, a significant portion of both parties is not bullish on the market

ARLINGTON, Va.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–
E*TRADE Financial, LLC today announced results from its Politics & Portfolios study on voting investor sentiment after the presidential election:

  • Both parties muted on market performance. While the majority of Democrats skew more positive, 44% are either bearish or believe the market will stay the same as a result of the election. Among Republicans, 62% are bearish or believe the market will remain flat.
  • Republicans brace for volatility. Republicans (64%) are significantly more likely than Democrats (47%) to expect more market volatility after the election.
  • Both parties are eager to revisit portfolios. Roughly three out of five of both Republicans (61%) and Democrats (58%) plan to make changes to their portfolio after the election.
  • Democrats see shorter runway to recovery. More than three out of four Democrats (77%) believe election results will accelerate an economic recovery. On the other hand, half of Republicans (51%) expect the economy to decelerate.

“Traditionally there tends to be more stability in the markets after an election—but this year was anything but traditional,” said Mike Loewengart, Managing Director, Investment Strategy at E*TRADE Financial. “Investors continue to contend with big unknowns—the pending stimulus bill, the velocity of the ongoing pandemic, and even a contested election outcome. All these factors could remain significant drivers of volatility. While it may be tempting to play with portfolio allocations right now, it bears repeating: When it comes to politics and investing, try to tune out the noise. Keep financial decisions mapped to your personal timeline, goals, and risk tolerance.”

The survey also explored views on sector opportunities as a result of the presidential election:

  • Health care:Though President-elect Biden advocated for the expansion of the Affordable Care Act, a split Congress could pose headwinds for sweeping reform. That said, 68% of the total surveyed see potential in the health care sector. Amid significant strides on the vaccine front, intrepid investors could be on the hunt for growth potential.
  • Energy: Since a sustainable economy was another top campaign point from President-elect Biden, 40% of surveyed respondents believe the sector could stand to benefit especially in green alternatives.
  • Information technology: The red-hot tech sector ranked third among investors. While the stay-at-home economy boosted tech names, almost 40% of surveyed investors think there’s more room to run as states reinstitute lockdowns. This sector tends to be highly scrutinized in the Beltway and a divided Congress could keep significant changes in regulation at bay.

About the Survey

The survey has a margin of error of ±3.50 percent at the 95 percent confidence level. It was fielded and administered by Dynata®. The panel is 50% Republican and 50% Democratic, as well as 40% female and 60% male, with a distribution across online brokerages, geographic regions, and age bands.
