DC Storm is a UK-based digital-marketing company, with offices in Germany and the USA, which provides marketing optimisation services to more than 1,000 websites worldwide. In collaboration with DC Storm, and funded by SEEDA’s (South-East England Development Agency) Innovation Voucher Scheme, Mathematics at Sussex developed analytic tools that allow digital marketing companies to optimise the profitability of paid-for keywords. Led by Dr Istvan Kiss from the Department of Mathematics, this research has increased the performance of commercial operations and profitability for DC Storm, and as a result the company has been nominated for two Industry Awards.
DC Storm has employed six Sussex graduates and provided three internships since the research project began, and remain closely affiliated with the Department of Mathematics.
