Knoema Corporation is a privately owned New York-based data technology company launched in 2014, founded in 2011. The firm deploys knowledge management solutions[buzzword] globally across multiple industry verticals.[buzzword] The company has a global team of data engineers, economists, and developers, with US-based employees in New York City and Washington, DC.
Knoema manages an open platform via its website Knoema.com, offering access to data visualization resources for more than 3.9 billion time series from more than 1,500 sources that are commonly used in open press and other publications globally [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] and referenced in data aggregator and science libraries.[8][9]
History[]
Knoema launched in 2014 under a collaboration with the African Development Bank to develop the African Information Highway,[10] a multi-year open data and data transparency initiative. The company also worked with the European Commission Joint Research Centre and the African Development Bank to develop digital data collection and distribution of food commodities price data in Africa.[11] Knoema also provided SDMX (Statistical Data and Metadata eXchange) compliant-systems to facilitate structured data collection and sharing between national governments and the International Monetary Fund.
In 2019, the company deployed its patented autonomous search engine to surface data in users’ workflows in Microsoft Office and G-Suite applications by making weak associations among concepts via a knowledge graph trained using AI.
Knoema was selected as one of the 10 companies to participate in the 2020 Fintech Innovation Lab.[12] Over the course of three month participation, Knoema collaborated with leaders from large financial institutions to accelerate the progress in solving key challenges faced by financial professionals.
In February 2020, the firm pushed into the alternative data space through its acquisition of Adaptive Management, an alternative data aggregator and solutions provider.[13]
In 2020, Knoema continued to develop partnerships with many data vendors. On 3 November 2020, Knoema has launched its new data catalog, Alternative Data+. This catalog is made up of hundreds of alternative data tear sheets that feature information about each data provider including tickers and sectors covered, known biases and in some cases, pricing, metadata and sample datasets.
In December 2020, Knoema was acquired by Eldridge and received investment from Snowflake Ventures, and joined the Snowflake Data Marketplace.
