It aims to accelerate and influence customer engagements and understanding while generating valuable company insights and industry thought leadership. Currently, FLASH is available for the Retail, Consumer Products, Automotive, Utilities, and Industrial Manufacturing Industries, with Telco and Wholesale Distribution Industries coming in June 2024.
