“Businesses have been collecting vast amounts of data, but there’s no value until they can understand what the data is telling them,” said Frank Bien, CEO of Looker, in a statement. “We’re addressing the growing need for non-technical users in organizations of all sizes to have the most current data so they can take action to make their businesses more competitive, more profitable and more successful.”
