Founder, President, and CEO, Analytic Partners

Nancy Smith is Founder, President, and CEO of Analytic Partners. Smith began her career as a brand marketer, and she identified a market need for better data analytics to drive enterprise growth. Smith’s experience struggling to turn data into actionable intelligence inspired her to launch Analytic Partners in early 2000. Since then, Smith has built the company into the global leader in analytics, with offices around the world, from the Americas to EMEA to Asia and Australia. Along the way, Smith has transformed Analytic Partners from an analytics consultancy to a technology firm with an industry-leading commercial analytics software platform, GPS Enterprise. 

Smith was named the Ernst & Young LLP Entrepreneur of the Year 2020, Florida Award. Smith has an MBA degree from the University at Buffalo School of Management, where she focused on Econometrics, Marketing, and International Business.
