A note from Colin Harris: one of the founders.
The Knowledge Warehouse Limited (Knoware) has been delivering world-class data and analytics solutions to the world for 21 years. The turbulent times we are presently faced with including pandemics, job losses and economic headwinds have made this milestone a time to pause and reflect on how much of an achievement this really is.
In New Zealand the 21st birthday has special meaning and is widely celebrated. Turning 21 signifies coming of age, becoming a fully-fledged adult and a contributor to the world. This is true for Knoware as a company and partner for our valued clients.
Over the past 21 years we have been privileged enough to work on some of the most significant data and analytics projects in the New Zealand landscape. In conjunction with SAS and other partners we have built data warehouses and business intelligence platforms, trained teams to deliver excellence in analytics and driven real world value in helping major government and commercial enterprises be data driven in their decision making.
It still pleases me, as a founder of Knoware, that we are still as strong and relevant today as we ever have been. It is truly humbling to think of all the support and investment our people and our clients have made in us to get us where we are today. I am extremely grateful for your support both in the past and on-going.
Knoware has been part of the foundational fabric of helping institutions with their people, processes and technology to innovate and push boundaries with complex analytics requirements. We’re excited that our specialist area of data and analytics has become even more important and high profile over the last two decades.
Knoware’s team, many of whom have been on the bulk of this 21-year journey, have risen to the challenges and ensured that even by today’s advancing technology standards our clients are at the forefront of the data and analytics value chain.
We have learnt a lot over these 21 years. We know the things that work, the things that don’t and the things we would like to think we would never try again.
From all of this we have built enduring relationships with a great group of people in New Zealand that trust Knoware and our people by name to deliver pragmatic, relevant and up to date advice on data and analytics.
As we celebrate this milestone we will share some of our experiences with you and showcase some new insights and innovative ways that you can maintain a trusted and reliable analytics capability now and into the ever-changing future.
Keep an eye on our website and LinkedIn as we share our journey to date and the exciting developments we are working on.
