Profile

Headquartered jointly in Chiasso, Switzerland and Boston, MA, the business management (BI) and corporate performance management (CPM) software company was founded in 1994, making it one of the oldest on our list. Its Board Toolkit is designed to help businesses improve productivity while lowering costs, which it does by implementing multi-dimensional analysis, dashboarding and reporting, planning and forecasting, and a slew of other tools.

As COVID-19 started picking up speed in early April, Board granted its customers and partners free access to its e-Learning platform, which it will continue to offer until the end of 2020. The platform contains over 130 videos and a plethora of exercises through which users can sharpen their skills from home during quarantine. The pandemic hasn’t slowed down the company’s global expansion plans, as they just opened up a new office in Toronto. Board’s impressive list of customers include softdrink competitors Coca-Cola and Pepsi, the U.S. Navy, Volkswagon, Puma, Mitsubishi Electric, and Telegraph Media Group.
