1. Downloaded from: justpaste.it/5wfap Anne Krog Iversen: An Extraordinary Business Leader According to a survey conducted by IDG’s (International Data Group) CIO Research Services nearly 90% of organizations are investing in AI – but only 1 in 3 projects are successful. AI tools have focused on automating machine learning and other processes for building models, but many data scientists still must write code to aggregate, cleanse, and prepare data for use by these tools. This is where TimeXtender can help. TimeXtender has worked tirelessly to offer its world-class technology offering, Discovery Hub®, an agile, comprehensive, and future-proof data management platform, help companies fulfill their business requirement for being data-driven. More specifically, Discovery Hub is a data management platform that helps prepare and manage data for AI and analytics – without writing code – automating the process of getting documented data in the right place, in the right form, and ready for analysis. Anne Krog Iversen– Chief People, DNA & Culture Officer, and Co-founder, who has years of experience in technology such as data warehousing and business intelligence leads TimeXtender’s corporate culture. The Impact of Emotional Skills There are many paths to becoming a technology business leader but what has worked well for Anne Krog Iversen was getting experience in different disciplines early in her career. When she started, she held positions in human resources, sales, marketing, and management at various companies. Anne worked on developing and understanding the impact of emotional skills and people skills so that she could pass on and guide the X-People (what the team calls themselves at TimeXtender). This passion and commitment have led the company to higher self-awareness, selfmanagement, and resilience, enabling the achievement of much more as individuals and as an organization. Supporting Analytics Data in the Cloud TimeXtender Discovery Hub helps companies fulfill their business requirement for being data-driven. TimeXtender regularly updates Discovery Hub to provide new capabilities for its partners and customers within the Microsoft technology community and was designed with a cloudfirst mindset for deployment on Azure. Discovery Hub provides organizations with instant access to data to help them derive greater insights to make faster and better decisions from their analytics data, and to support their efforts to meet compliance and to reap all the benefits from having their analytics data available in the cloud. Most importantly, the company works towards a bigger purpose – through automation, it focuses on giving the partners and customers it serves, more time to do what matters most to them to help them make faster quality decisions with data, mind, and heart. This is of the greatest importance because time matters. Future Technology Advancements TimeXtender is exclusively focused on the Microsoft data ecosystem.

The company also support Azure Synapse Analytics and SQL Server 2019. TimeXtender is a Microsoft Gold Certified Partner, Microsoft Azure Certified, and available in the Azure Marketplace. Although Discovery Hub was built with a cloud-first mindset, it’s also available on-premises or hybrid. The company supports changing deployment models without changing data models as its technology is built to evolve with future technology advancements and new Microsoft Azure offerings. This unrelenting focus has proven to be successful as evidenced by the company’s more than 3,000 customers worldwide and a global partner network of more than 170 business alliances. Connect, Collaborate and Improve Decision Making TimeXtender has a great appreciation for how technology can simplify corporate processes, as it looks to automate what can be automated to save time so that it can focus on what matters most.
