How Gazelle.ai is helping YES!
Winnipeg find new target companies
Using big data analytics, Gazelle.ai can quickly identify trends
and businesses that are not immediately evident and identify new
business prospects. Using this tool creates an opportunity for the YES!
team to strategically manage FDI resources and increase the success
rate of FDI initiatives. Using fewer resources and improving time
management, while finding new companies from further afield, allows
for a greater reach resulting in better business outcomes.
With resources like Gazelle.ai, YES! Winnipeg is contacting companies
from across North America and encouraging them to consider
Winnipeg as an ideal location for expansion or relocation. With this
tool, the city is being looked at as an investment site, and competing
against larger jurisdictions.
Gazelle.ai is an innovative example of how data can be used to
help YES! Winnipeg evolve its work in the FDI space. This type of big
data analysis allows YES! Winnipeg to have greater impact on FDI
attraction, while spending less time on research and dead-end cold
calls. It also maximizes investor dollars, and helps YES! Winnipeg
utilize every dollar invested in the team more effectively. Pursuing
more business leads than ever before, the YES! team is opening
Winnipeg up to new markets and sharing the city's competitive
advantages in more sophisticated ways to receptive audiences.
