As the Providence Business News notes: 'The world is awash in numbers. Companies collect oceans of data on their customers, employees and operations, and powerful computers make running sophisticated computations a snap.

But the fact that numbers are ubiquitous does not mean they are truly understood. That's where Minimax Consulting steps in.'

Minimax Consulting has a diverse, and incredibly qualified team of analysts and senior consultants throughout the Americas, ranging from Pennsylvania to Argentina. The firm tends to focus on arbitrage and statistical projects, with contracts with companies such as 'Starbucks, Visa, Booz Allen Hamilton, Smucker's, Harvard Medical School and Lifetime Television.'

"To paraphrase Bill Gates; IQ, not size, matters. Minimax Consulting has the smartest analysts of any firm, anywhere," says Anthony Santa Barbara, Chief Administrative Officer at Minimax Consulting.
