The Hollywood-inspired start-up with business tools that don't need coding

Set up in 2015, Gyana helps one create things by using GUI or conversational tools, and aims to make data science accessible even to non-techies

Last week, London-based data science firm Gyana raised a pre-series A funding of $3.9 million led by Fuel Adventures, Twitter co-founder Biz Stone, Green Shores Capital and U+I.                       
                        

Started in 2015 by serial entrepreneur Joyeeta Das, the CEO and David Kell, the chief technology officer, Gyana's inception has a Hollywood connect.
