How they describe their product/innovation: With more than 1.2 billion users worldwide, Excel remains the #1 tool used by analysts, quants, portfolio managers and other professionals to make investment decisions. Its simple paradigm coupled with its powerful engine lets Excel consistently trump all alternatives. But getting market data into Excel remains a challenge. Existing solutions are often cryptic, and access to real-time data is a huge challenge.

By making the billions of market data points available via its APIs – including real-time streaming data – as easy to access as calling an Excel function, the Xignite CloudAddin aims to revolutionize how market data is integrated into spreadsheets.
