Fidelity Growth Partners India commits to a $20 million investment in AbsolutData, a leading provider of data analytics services to global organizations. With this round of investment, AbsolutData aims to scale up its global delivery footprint to meet the growing demand for advanced and big data analytics.

AbsolutData is a pioneer in delivering analytics and research services through a global delivery model. The company today works with several marquee clients, including Fortune 1000 organizations across the globe, enhancing their advanced and big data analytics capabilities, and helping them gain real time insights to increase profitability and growth. Analytics is a top priority for CXOs across the world. However, there is a shortage of skilled data scientists to analyze the growing amounts of data.
