ConnectAmericas Data Visualization

ConnectAmericas.com (CA) is a social media platform for businesses. It is designed to help small and medium size enterprises in the Americas carry out more and better international trade and investment transactions. Through this platform, users can connect with businessmen and women from around the world, and access tools and practical information designed to simplify the process of internationalization.
CA has initiated its transition towards financial sustainability. To that end, it has started two developing products for which it has found preliminary interest from potential clients: virtual matchmaking events and whitelabel solutions. CA has also encountered demand for CA Big Data Analysis and Visualization. However, this development has not started due to lack of funds.
Big data is the present and future of high quality decision making. According to a 2014 EIU survey, 48% of the 395 corporate executive respondents considered big data a useful tool, while another 23% said it would revolutionize the way businesses were managed. This is echoed by findings of MIT and PwC studies, which concluded that companies embracing big-data gained a 5-6% productivity boost against their competitors.
