Prior, he was co-founder of Personity, a presence and availability company, which was acquired by Openwave in 2002.

“DISQO is rapidly expanding the scale and capabilities of our insights platform to help our clients keep pace with their customers and the totality of their brand experiences,” said Kutcharian. “Yanni’s background in improving customer experience and driving results with data science will further accelerate the work we’re doing to enable our clients with platform-based solutions that improve their understanding of their customers while also increasing their speed, efficiency and growth in competitive markets.”
