Operating at its full digital potential could add at least $2 trillion to the US GDP. The catch…

AI Has a People Problem

According to IBM/Burning Glass, there are more openings for analytics talent than there are data professionals in existence! Beyond that, the World Economic Forum estimates the average enterprise employee needs 101 days of upskilling to meet workforce skill demands by 2023.
Technology is driving our world into the digital revolution, but people are getting left behind. QuantHub starts at the root with developing data literacy skills in education with k-12 students and branches outward, helping companies develop their strongest asset in this revolution: their people. We provide an efficient yet rigorous vetting platform for hiring data professionals and a modern, in the flow of work, learning platform focused on both AI skills for analytics teams and data literacy skills for the entire enterprise.
