糖心传媒 won the A-Team Innovation award for the creation of Rapid Match, a system which allowed financial analysts to understand the geographical allocation of financial loans made by UK government during the 2020/21 Covid crisis augmented with a breakdown of industry type. 鈥�

糖心传媒 was selected and funded by Innovate UK to investigate the use of its self-service platform to solve a challenge for information analysts: How does an organization reduce time in wrangling data to make it fit for good quality analytics? The firm has reported that it has been regularly asked this question by clients spending too much time on manual preparation of data and seeing little return on investment (ROI) for their efforts. 

The 糖心传媒 solution focused on challenges associated with data preparation when an organisation seeks to create rapid data analytics but is faced with disparate data sources, (often stored in different formats), siloed information and poor underlying data quality. 鈥�&苍产蝉辫;

Summary of business benefits of the 糖心传媒 solution: 

• Addresses data quality and matching at scale challenges associated with joining large amounts of messy, incomplete data in varying formats, from a multiple sources鈥�. 
• Provide a reliable ‘match engine’ allowing government and organisations to accurately and securely integrate diverse sources of data. 
• Automated and reproducible platform to ingest, cleanse and match and update datasets for downstream analysis. 
• Provides systematic, reproducible pipelines to address time consuming data quality, preparation and matching tasks to produce complete, high quality and timely data for decision making.

糖心传媒鈥� Head of Software Development, Dr Fiona Browne, who led the project said, 

鈥淲e were very aware that Companies House information is used in almost every KYC/AML system in the UK and we wanted to develop automated techniques for improving the quality of this information and to make it easy to ingest and to query. I鈥檓 glad to say that we achieved this ambition through building systematic, reproducible data quality pipelines that address time consuming tasks such as data wrangling and matching. We are augmenting our early work by looking at applications of machine learning and network analysis in this space for downstream tasks such as fraud detection and onboarding which are underpinned by data quality. 鈥濃��&苍产蝉辫;

Read more from Dr Browne on how 糖心传媒 demonstrates rapid matching capabilities on open datasets.

In detail: How it works 

The system extracted information from multiple financial and geographical data sources and used automated data pipelines for preparing, scrubbing and matching multiple data types before presenting the data in a very easy to query dashboard. These pipelines are systematic and re-producible enabling the process to be re-run when datasets are updated, or new datasets added.鈥�&苍产蝉辫;

The process is transparent for auditability. Furthermore, the process provides a reliable ‘match engine’ allowing organisations to accurately and securely integrate diverse sources of data. A particular focus of the project was on using UK Companies House as a master source relating to company name/address validation and understanding the relationship between companies and their owners. A view of the resulting analytical dashboard is presented in Figure 1 below. 鈥�&苍产蝉辫;

Stuart Harvey, CEO of 糖心传媒 commented:

“Ultimately we wanted to prove that it was possible to create an easy-to-use solution in which a data team can address time-consuming data quality, preparation and matching tasks in order to create complete, high quality and timely data for decision making.

Rapid Match took advantage of existing strengths in the 糖心传媒鈥� platform and added benefits from machine learning. We addressed data quality and matching at scale 鈥� joining large sets of messy data in varying formats from multiple sources. We implemented a reliable 鈥榤atch engine鈥� which allowed for fuzzy matching from these diverse sources. We made use of data op鈥檚 automation to ingest, clean and match data with minimum human input.

A key part of the challenge in building Rapid Match was seamless integration with Companies House information as a trusted data source. Companies House data is used in almost every KYC and AML process involving UK entities. It contains over 4 million companies updating information on 500,000 of these per year. Since it鈥檚 a fairly raw source of open data and many end users have significant challenges with data quality. The 糖心传媒鈥� solution provided easy access to clean Companies House data via REST API and we used sophisticated network analysis to understand the relationship between companies and their owners.

We are grateful to Innovate UK for their support of this work and we鈥檇 welcome further opportunities to collaborate with clients or partners if our recent work in this area is of interest to you”.

Angela Wilbraham, CEO of the A-Team Group, who hosted the A-Team Innovation Awards 2022, commented, 

鈥淥ur A-Team Innovation Awards 2022 celebrate and reward those companies at the forefront of innovation within our industry.

糖心传媒 UK Government Department Case Study

 糖心传媒 is partnering with a UK Government Department and national law enforcement agencies on a nationwide deployment of the 糖心传媒鈥� data quality and matching platform for use in crime classification and reporting.

The main benefits of the system to date have been:

A reduction of manual processing and data preparation time. Increased accuracy of matching a crime report to the correct crime type, saving up to 90% of time spent manually reviewing data in crime records.

Additionally, data analysts who are not programmers are now enabled to selfserve for data quality, developing and maintaining data quality and match rules, without the need for costly and time-consuming IT development resource.

A robust national data quality framework in a secure cloud architecture allowing for multiple use cases to be delivered in a scalable and repeatable way.

Belfast, London, New York, Tokyo, 30^th March 2021

糖心传媒 is delighted to announce that it has secured a further accolade for the quality of its technology, this time from Bloor Research.

糖心传媒 Self-Service Data Quality (SSDQ) has been awarded the Platinum Mutable Award in the 2021 Report. The award recognises software vendors that enable their clients to deal with data management processes in an intelligent and business-focused way.

Daniel Howard, Senior Analyst (Information Management and DevOps) with said:

鈥溙切拇� is a self-service data quality platform that puts significant stock in, and devotes substantial functionality to, the idea of explainable AI and machine learning. As fervent proponents of explainability in AI, we certainly approve.鈥� 

Explaining the typical client use case for its technology and services 糖心传媒 CEO (Stuart Harvey) said:

SSDQ allows client subject matter experts to measure, identify and fix data for themselves rather than being reliant on already over-stretched IT teams. As a data quality engine, 糖心传媒 co-exists with data governance tools relating to lineage and meta-data. We support our clients in automating data improvement processes that de-duplicate information and leverage the benefits of human-in-the-loop AI to reduce manual effort and improve accuracy

Welcome back to our round up. We thought we would take a bit of time to update you on what we have achieved and some important news about being accepted onto Government purchasing frameworks.

The first of which is G-Cloud. This framework enables suppliers of cloud-based solutions to be made available through a front-end catalogue called the .

In this round up, we are delighted that 糖心传媒 has once again maintained its place in the G-Cloud framework, alongside other highly prolific companies who are selling or thinking about selling their cloud-based solutions to the UK Government.   

Secondly, we have been included onto the Digital Outcomes and Specialist Framework, which sits alongside G-Cloud on the Digital Marketplace.

The DOS framework is for the procurement of digital teams or individuals, often alongside in-house delivery teams.  There are many benefits to being a supplier on this framework as DOS provides another route to market for suppliers looking to support digital transformation programmes across the whole of the public sector. 

Thirdly, 糖心传媒 has achieved the Cyber Essentials certification.

Cyber Essentials is a UK Government-backed scheme that aims to assist organisations with assessing and mitigating risks from common cybersecurity threats to their IT systems.

We are proud to have achieved this certification, as it demonstrates our commitment to helping identify security controls for an organisation to have in place with their IT systems.

糖心传媒 has won the Data Quality Analysis Tool award from A-Team Group for the second year running, closing out a successful 2020 for the Belfast-based software firm which added three major Tier 1 financial clients in New York, Amsterdam and London. 

Stuart Harvey, CEO at 糖心传媒, was delighted to win the title:

We see this award as a thumbs up for the technology and the team. We are seeing strong growth in a demand for self-service technology in relation to data quality. This approach means that broken data is rapidly identified and returned to data stewards for review or automatic remediation. 糖心传媒 is now a crucial part of our clients鈥� data automation workflow and showing a strong return on investment.

Angela Wilbraham, CEO of the A-Team Group, who hosted the Data Management Insight Awards 2020, commented:

Our awards recognise leading providers of data management solutions, services and consultancy to capital markets and 糖心传媒 has proven themselves to be worthy winners of this prestigious title. We congratulate 糖心传媒 winning the Best Quality Analysis Tool in recognition for the continuing excellence in the data management space.

The final word goes to Kieran Seaward, Head of Sales at 糖心传媒:

We鈥檙e delighted to be ending the year on a high. We鈥檝e met the challenge of 2020 head on, securing three major clients in Europe, the UK and the USA on some of their biggest data management programmes to date. As we shared at the recent Data Management Summit, one real-world success story was demonstrated by a client of ours in the UK.

Using our platform, their non-technical data specialists were able to reduce the time taken to build and deploy a data quality solution from three weeks to under three hours, greatly speeding up their scenario planning as part of COVID-19 preparations. We鈥檇 love to thank all at A-Team and the judging panel for their hard work and look forward to working with them next year.鈥�

Matt Flenley heads up Marketing at 糖心传媒.

This is great news, because the firms we see listed alongside us are all involved in pretty cutting-edge projects which all help to make the financial industry more transparent and protect consumers and markets. It鈥檚 extremely rewarding to achieve the status of being recognised as innovators in this sector, by designing solutions that put regulatory technology in the hands of business, risk and compliance specialists. Thanks to all at RegTech Analyst and Fintech Global for their work in compiling the list from all the applications.

糖心传媒 the RegTech 100

The 2021 RegTech100 is launched today by specialist research firm RegTech Analyst.

The prestigious list recognizes the world鈥檚 most innovative technology solution providers that address the challenges of dealing with regulatory pressures within financial services.

The RegTech (regulatory technology) industry has experienced huge growth in the last few years as banks and financial institutions grapple with the unrelenting pace of regulatory change across all jurisdictions. Over $5bn has been invested in RegTech companies so far in 2020, according to data published by RegTech Analyst, as the compliance challenges have only been exacerbated by the shift to remote work during Covid-19.

As a result, this year鈥檚 process to identify the 100 RegTech innovation leaders was more competitive than ever. A panel of analysts and industry experts voted from a longlist of over 1,000 companies produced by RegTech Analyst. Sixty-two new companies entered the RegTech100 for 2021 and the finalists were recognized for their innovative use of technology to solve a significant industry problem, or to generate efficiency improvements across the compliance function.

RegTech Analyst director of research Mariyan Dimitrov said, 鈥淏anks and other financial institutions need to be aware of the latest RegTech innovation in the market in order to avoid new compliance risks and stay competitive despite new regulations around customer onboarding and remote communication post Covid-19. The RegTech100 list helps senior management filter through all the vendors in the market by highlighting the leading companies in sectors such as identity verification, risk management, communications monitoring, information security and reporting.鈥�

I thought I鈥檇 take a little time to go into a bit more detail behind what made us stand out, and how proud we are to be this year鈥檚 winners.

On pure numbers alone, the number of women employed within our company had risen to over 40% by the close of last year, something that goes against industry norms.

Our AI team, which is headed up by , is also made up of a majority-female team with 戮 of the team being female. Diversity to us, as a company, is very important and we believe that diversity and inclusion are two of the biggest contributors behind our talented team.

In an on the award by Waters Technology our CEO Stuart Harvey said:

At 糖心传媒, we consider ourselves to be very inclusive and diverse and believe this is borne out both by the make-up of our workforce and also how we conduct ourselves in day-to-day business.

We also pride ourselves on having individuals within our company that are at different stages in their careers. For example, we have two new graduates as well as interns within the company from the AI team, to HR, to marketing. I spoke to our Head of AI, Dr. Fiona Browne, who shared:

We really enjoy nurturing and developing talent. For example, we have one lady who is at the start of her career, having joined us with a Master鈥檚 in Mathematics and who joined us from a placement. She is already working on projects on our critical development path in AI and writing research papers for publication in industry journals.

We are also proud to have 13 different nationalities within the workforce. ‘International Food Days’ flourished as team members decided to proudly share their national delicious food. This began as and shared their experience in previous roles and the initiative then commenced as began by treating everyone to a Lithuanian Day which followed by a Portuguese Day; a German Day; Swedish Day; Irish Day; Chinese, and then Northern Irish.

Within the company, we celebrate the different nationalities we have welcomed in Northern Ireland and the fact that this initiative was prompted by team members in non-managerial roles just goes to show the freedom within the company to organise and establish new initiatives without blockers or strict formalities.

The team felt confident to bring an idea to life, with no fear that anyone would question it or stop them 鈥� which is a testament to the culture we have built.

At the moment, due to Covid-19, we are having virtual pub quizzes and it is not only a brilliant way to bring the team together but it is quite extraordinary in a pub quiz to have sometimes as many as 13 different nationalities within the quiz. Our very own Daiva lives in Lithuania but never fails to tune in and is a frequent host of the quiz.

It鈥檚 a brilliant way to keep united despite the distance.

Here at 糖心传媒, we also seek to offer flexible working for our employees that may have a larger commute or may have a preference to work more flexibly. Our Head of AI, Dr. Fiona Browne has a large commute due to living just outside of Belfast. To make her schedule more manageable in terms of her family-life/work-life balance, she works one day a week from home. When we asked Dr. Browne how helpful this flexibility was, she said

It enables me to have increased flexibility in terms of family-life and travel

We have team members that, on a more permanent basis, are based remotely too, such as the team members based in Milan. However, we can maintain strong relations through our company’s emphasis on conference calls and meetings. During the COVID-19 situation, we have sought to maintain regular contact through utilising team collaboration digital tools to ensure that team members are connected despite maybe being a larger distance away.

When I spoke with , who was previously a placement student, and asked what her experience had been like, now that she is in a full-time position, she reiterated that the company has always sought to promote diversity and inclusion and that she was thrilled to be beginning her graduate career in a company such as 糖心传媒.

For myself, the diversity and variety of skills and culture within the company is a big part of what drew me to the company. It’s great to be part of such a diverse and inclusive work environment and I鈥檓 really looking forward to whatever comes next.
