Aite-Novarica Group and RBR announced its rebranding as Datos Insights. These companies – both global leaders in financial services technology research and data – merged in February 2022. This new brand represents an expanded vision for the combined company, which builds on its collective reach and resources. And together under the Datos Insights name, they will continue their journey with a new web presence and product enhancements to help clients achieve the most significant possible business impact.
As part of the re-branding, Datos Insights announces several updates to their insights and advisory offerings, including:
— Open access – Subscription clients of the (former) Aite-Novarica Group now have open access to reports and webinars for all employees who wish to access them via the improved client portal at www.datos-insights.com. Access is no longer restricted to a small number of named seat-holders.
— Enhanced data – RBR’s research is increasingly being delivered through a combination of proprietary global datasets and deep market insights, with enhanced access to leading industry analysts.
— Expanded coverage – RBR Data Services are being expanded to include commercial cards and digital payments, in addition to the firm’s existing coverage across the retail technology, banking automation, cards, and payments sectors.
— More executive networking – Executive Councils have been launched for multiple client roles, including Heads of Commercial and Retail Banking, Fraud & AML executives, Insurance and Banking CIOs and CISOs, and Heads of Wealth Management and Investment Operations. And these Councils meet regularly online and in person to give members unique access to their peers and to Datos Insights advisors and performance benchmarks.
— Expanded strategic consulting options – Financial institution and insurer clients can access a larger menu of engagements, such as IT roadmaps, vendor selection, competitive intelligence, and voice-of-the-customer surveys.
— Expanded offerings for service and technology providers – The clients in these sectors now have a larger menu of bespoke offerings, such as thought leadership, webinars, speaking engagements, market sizing, product reviews, and go-to-market strategy.
— Updated and expanded conferences – Datos Insights now hosts an even larger portfolio of in-person conferences in North America and Europe, with new venues, engaging formats, and additional networking and sponsorship opportunities.
KEY QUOTE:
“We are excited about the continued growth and evolution of the company. Our three heritage brands (Aite Group, Novarica, and RBR) each had a mission to help clients anticipate and respond to technology, market, and strategic changes. Combined as Datos Insights, we are even closer to our goal of becoming the leading global provider of insights, data, and advisory services to the financial services, insurance, and retail technology industries. We believe our market knowledge, experience, and data, combined with a level of personal client engagement we don’t see elsewhere, make the Datos Insights proposition unbelievably compelling.”
— Kurt Reisenberg, CEO
