Andrew Yates, CEO at Artesian Solutions, comments:
“This last year has been challenging and rewarding in equal measure for Artesian Solutions. As we begin to become recognised and acknowledged in the space we occupy I believe the most significant achievement is making our customers successful by helping them drive business value from the freely available information which is out there on the web. We have also managed to hire some great people and fund and feed ourselves in what has been a challenging time for everyone. That makes the numbers all the more satisfying and rewarding for the team.”

Yates added: “The impact we have made within the industry over the last nine months is just the start, and we have plans for further additions and improvements in the coming months as we seek to provide our customers with better visual insights into the connections between what is happening in the news and how this relates to their business – exciting times!”
