Cognitive company discovery

Cognitive Company Discovery is an application that helps business professionals identify companies of interest to them. The application employs a variety of artificial intelligence and data science techniques to build a corpus of company data, rapidly search the corpus based on implicit and explicit user queries, present the results using visualization techniques that yield insight into areas of interest to the user and to scan vast amounts of news and blog posts to aid users in discovering new companies. The application is currently deployed in a major corporation. A video that demonstrates our system can be found at the following URL: https://player.vimeo.com/video/278031050
