About BDS Analytics Market Research company in Boulder, United States
Data-driven insights market intelligence and complete consumer understanding
Roy Bingham is a Harvard MBA and former McKinsey consultant a serial entrepreneur and founder of BDSA. He grew up in the UK was a banker/financier in London then moved to the USA in 1993.
Bingham started BDSA after recognizing that the emerging cannabis industry lacked the kind of sophisticated sales-based data that is both commonplace and essential in other more established industries. In those industries market research – and consumer behavior – drive everything from new product development to inventory and branding decisions.
Among his prior businesses Bingham had been both an early investor in SPINS – a very successful data analytics company for the Natural Products Industry and later an expert user of their data as a senior marketing executive in natural products.
Micah Tapman is a long-time venture capitalist with a background in cybersecurity financial services and the cannabis industry. He led the first investment in BDSA in 2015 and has served the company in a variety of roles including investor advisor director and now chairman.
Micah is a co-founder of CanopyBoulder and 7thirty two venture capital investment groups focused on the cannabis industry and he is a veteran of both the U.S. Marine Corps and the Fortune 500 world with an MBA and B.S. in computers. As a serial entrepreneur and venture capitalist he combines a deep understanding of technology with a focus on business strategy. His time in the Corps provided an outstanding leadership foundation which melded with business training at SAIC and in graduate school to create a dynamic leader with the ability to motivate and empower those around him.
