Chris Geiger
CEO of The Geiger Company“Think Data Group Managing Partner Barry Gold seems to know pretty much everyone and everything that matters in the data space. I call him the ‘King of all Data!” He is truly resourceful and knows how to connect the dots to convert a business need into a solution. This was just the beginning, though. I came to Barry looking for data but Barry patiently invested time to understand my situation and goals and then applied his industry and general business knowledge into counsel that guided me through several critical business decisions. I was so impressed that I invited him to join my Advisory Board.”

I’ve worked with Barry Gold for many years. He is exceedingly knowledgeable about the data space today, and remarkably prescient about where it’s going. He is also well-connected to a broad network of thought-leaders, innovators and practitioners.
These traits make him an invaluable advisor and collaborator who brings both insights and actionable ideas to the table. Barry also operates with complete integrity, transparency and honesty- plus a good dose of charm and humor! In my experience, his solutions-based approach to tackling challenges and capitalizing on opportunities has always produced tangible results.
