Analyzing Industry Data

The market research involves discovering companies, which are making social impact, and either are public, or could be making an IPO soon. You will responsible for making the decision, based on multiple criteria that we will provide, regarding whether the company suits our profile, or not. After that, you will be inputing the company's data into an online template, which we are providing. We will be providing initial introductions and support, in order for you to understand your tasks thoroughly. We are also having a weekly update for you to present your findings, voice the difficulties you are facing, and for us to clear anything that stands in your way.
