Week in Review:

Last week we released 2 IDOs ranging across different industries and sectors. If you joined us in the middle of the week, or missed an IDO, this recap is for you.

1. Mundi Scientia Offline Retail Sales Data (POS/SKU): Offline retail sales data of listed companies (POS + SKU)

2. Spatial Risk Systems (SRS) NOAA US Weather Events: US Weather Events and Historical Losses. Understand the underlying physical and financial risks to your investments.

The IDO Data Bounty Program allows anyone who is looking for a particular dataset to put out a bounty and crowdsource the search amongst our community. After bounty submissions are received, the community member who put out the bounty will choose a winner and pay them their reward directly. Hunters are rewarded once the community member looking for the data is successful in finding and obtaining the data they were searching for. This process, like any data purchasing process can take several months to complete.
