Quantium — Quantium has been turning data into decisions since 2002, one of Australia's original data science and AI companies. Its Q platform serves retail, banking, health and telecommunications, and its joint ventures read at national scale, including CommBank iQ, built on Australia's largest aggregated transaction banking dataset, and Quantium Telstra. Woolworths took a majority stake in 2021, folding that analytics capability deeper into one of the country's largest retailers.
