Domo Scholarship for
Business Management
Domo is serious about improving

Really serious. Like, "let's help kids go to college to be better at
business" serious.
About the scholarship
For the 2013 academic year, Domo will provide two scholarships of $2,500 each for college students who are studying business management and who show an interest in analytics.
Here’s why:
Gartner Research says that over the next four years, “a total of 6 million jobs in the U.S. will be generated by the information economy.” Accenture and SAS research also state that in 2012, “nearly three in four (72%) business in the US were planning to increase their spending on analytics—even as many other budgets were squeezed.” However, Gartner’s research also suggests that only about one-third of global demand for new big data-related jobs will actually be met.
While pundits are accrediting the gap to IT departments and pivot table experts, Domo believes there will be a huge demand for mid-level and senior managers with hands-on experience accessing and applying data-driven insights to better manage their business.
Bottom line: there is a demand for data-driven leaders, and Domo is helping tomorrow’s businesses to fill it.
