Entry into the hedge fund industry
We facilitated the entry of a private US-based investor into the hedge fund industry
Client
A private US-based investor approached us with a visionary but undefined idea to launch a new company within the evolving hedge fund industry
Business challenges
- Complex business domain for a new entrant
- Lack of a thought-out business idea
- Low trust level in a new entrant in the chosen niche
Our solutions
- Research and Development (R&D)
- Data scraping platform
- Social network analysis (SNA) platform
- Platform for running email marketing campaigns
- Over 20+ marketing websites
Project implementation
We developed a strategic plan to achieve the client’s objectives. To conduct an in-depth study of the target niche and gather data for further analysis, we created scripts for mass data scraping from various websites. This resulted in the consolidation of a comprehensive database of Hedge Funds in the US.
For big data analysis, we built a platform that utilized Natural Language Processing (NLP) to conduct an extensive analysis of social dependencies within the sector. To rapidly test numerous hypotheses and identify the best niche for the client’s business, we carried out multiple discovery phases and developed over 20 marketing websites.
To promote the business and attract investment, we developed a platform designed for running marketing email campaigns. This included a data management system, an email template builder, and a subsystem for mass mailings, enabling effective communication and outreach.
