Data science boutique EdgeRed expands into Melbourne
Data science boutique EdgeRed has expanded into Melbourne, its first locale outside of Sydney.
Launched in 2018 in Sydney, EdgeRed is a data & analytics consulting firm specialised in helping organisations make faster and smarter decisions with data. The firm supports its clients with data strategy, data engineering and governance, dashboards and visualisation, as well as advanced techniques such as machine learning.
Commenting on the move into Melbourne, co-founders Howard Gu and Monica Ly said: “This strategic move marks a significant step in EdgeRed’s journey as we continue to expand our capabilities and geographical footprint. We look forward to enhance the support we offer to our Melbourne-based clients.”
Leading the new office is Jeremy Ng, who brings a wealth of experience in analytics, operational excellence, and team leadership to the firm. He most recently worked at Quantium, where he led the FMCG practice in Melbourne. In the role, he built a high-performing team in the region, and spearheaded initiatives at clients that resulted in significant improvements in productivity and customer satisfaction.
“We are delighted to welcome Jeremy,” said Gu and Ly. “His proven track record of driving strong commercial and operational outcomes for clients and fostering a culture of innovation aligns perfectly with our EdgeRed’s vision for growth and success.”
On his new role, Ng stated: “I look forward to deepening our relationships with our clients and partners in Melbourne, and working together on innovative ways to use data to make a difference in our communities.”
EdgeRed has hit the ground running in Melbourne, already bagging a number of greenfield clients and assembling a team of six data scientists. Ng: “The team is rapidly taking shape, and we’re on the lookout for fresh talent.”
