Who we are

Effini is a data science organisation with a big goal: to help any organisation take control of their data and gain real value and insight from it. We are a team of enthusiastic and talented people committed to making a difference.

The people who work with us are curious, imaginative and problem solvers. We don’t do data science for the sake if it, we want to bring practical solutions to our clients, improving their use and understanding of data as we go.

Although many of us work remotely, we’re based out of the Bayes Centre in Edinburgh, an innovation centre for Artificial Intelligence and Data Science.
