FactSet creates flexible, open data and software solutions for investment professionals around the world.

Work
UN Sustainable Development Goals dashboard
A public dashboard monitoring global progress toward the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals. Data is fetched and processed in Python on an Express server with hourly cron jobs, then served to the dashboard.
FactSet ESG
A proposed esg.factset.com site showcasing FactSet’s sustainability offerings, with a live newsfeed covering the Sustainable Development Goals. The work included coordinating with FactSet engineering to take over the esg subdomain and launching a beta of the landing page as a pitch to the CEO and ESG leads.
Outcome
The esg.factset.com beta launched as a pitch to FactSet’s CEO and ESG leads, and the Sustainable Development Goals dashboard shipped as a public resource.
This work was done by a CedarVane co-founder before the company was founded.
