Hi Fastlaners,
Been a few months since I joined and still working on viable business ideas. As I wrote in my introduction, I have several years of experience with data, so ofc this is an industry in which I have most confidence. I don't want to go in too much details, but most places where I worked were some sort of data vendors, meaning getting the data from an unstructured public sources (news article, press release etc) and putting it in a structure (database) and sell it to companies that need this information for different reasons.
I don't want to give exact company names here, but for example there is a website that helps individual investors find all annual meetings, insider transactions, company financials etc of all public companies in one place which results in time savings and less headaches for its customers. It also allows them to compare issuers.
Or there is a different one for businesses in the financial sector that collects MnA transactions data from public press releases/annual reports/stock market announcements/regulatory filings and puts certain data points in a database and develops all sort of products related to that/sells the structured data to advisory firms. There is a different one that does the same with IPOs...
I'm bringing up financial examples because that's where I have experience, but any other industry opinion is more than welcome. So I'm wondering, is there any specific data in your industry/business that would be helpful to you? For example are you reading industry specific news portals and if yes why and what are you hoping to find there?
