DataStrategy Success Stories

For a chemical startup, InfraTrac, DataStrategy's expertise linked a technology for tagging and tracking counterfeit drugs with a venture fund to create the company. The technology, licensed from the University of Maryland's School of Pharmacy, works like a kind of "wet RFID." Instead of tracking packages, as radio frequency IDs do, InfraTrac tags and tracks the chemical ingredients. and does it in a way that does not require new FDA approval. So companies can detect fakes, track suppliers, even track batches. Currently optimized for powders and pills, it is also capable of tracking liquids.

For an enterprise productivity innovator, Contextware, DataStrategy strategists are providing hands-on technology leadership for a breakthrough software platform that brings the rigor of business process to managing content in context. This powerful convergence has broad impact on key enterprise workplace issues including; improving productivity, employee attrition and retention, compliance, business continuity, increasing value of IT infrastructure, capturing and managing intellectual capital and continuous improvement.

For the venture capital division of a major NY investment firm, DataStrategy experts assessed two companies for potential investment. We raised concerns about one that ultimately led the VC to choose not to invest. DataStrategy staff performed full technology due diligence on the other, including an extensive review of multilingual capabilities, and a term sheet was signed two weeks later.

For a small company, the DataStrategy team defined how its natural language processing (NLP) technology compared with others in the marketplace, and provided key messages for the sales team to help them differentiate the company’s offerings. DataStrategy strategists assessed the value of the company’s intellectual property portfolio, and drafted seven patent applications, at dramatically lower cost and higher quality than could be obtained by having a law firm do the full task.

For a biomedical search startup, Corlante, the DataStrategy team performed system testing, proposed key improvements, and crafted an SBIR proposal.
