Dallas, TX May 3, 2021, A panel of distinguished judges for the Snowflake Startup Challenge has named OverlayAnalytics as one of the most promising data and analytics startups in the world.

After sorting through applications from all corners of the globe, the all-star panel including Benoit Dageville, Co-Founder, Snowflake, Mike Speiser, Managing Director, Sutter Hill Ventures, Carl Eschenbach, Partner, Sequoia Capital, and Denise Persson, CMO, Snowflake elevated OverlayAnalytics into their final round.

OverlayAnalytics is a game-changing platform that enables mid-market companies to possess data capabilities that rival sophisticated in-house analyst and reporting teams. 

Built using a modular tech stack designed to meet clients wherever they are in their data journey, OverlayAnalytics easily handles millions and billions of transaction-level records. The platform automatically transforms them into digestible business logic, ultimately providing intuitive, customizable reports for any metric, any KPI, and any decision that needs to be made.

As the data cloud of the future, the partnership with Snowflake was an obvious choice. Both firms believe deeply in the mission of eliminating the complexities surrounding big data and data infrastructure for every firm across the globe.

OverlayAnalytics founder and CEO Bryan Shupe said, "This is a huge honor for our entire team, and affirmation of our approach to helping mid-market companies regain the upper hand when it comes to data. Technology has advanced to the point that we can now effectively replace an entire data science team with a single turn-key platform.”

The top three finalists were revealed on May 21, 2021 and winner will be announced on June 9th.
