Project Insight Analytical Dashboards

This case study highlights the work done on an enterprise-grade analytics dashboard designed for over 100 investors, aimed at reducing data retrieval time by 30% and improving portfolio insights.
‍
Despite receiving positive feedback from users, the project did not launch due to company restructuring following an acquisition.
