Sydney, Australia – Amperity has announced that it has been awarded the ‘Communications, Media and Entertainment Partner of the Year’ Award by Databricks. With Databricks and Amperity, brands such as Paramount and Vail Resorts, have maximized the value of their customer data, lowered costs, and increased data democratization to generate and share insights to their downstream systems and business users.
