Forio

Forio creates software products that enable simulations, data explorations, and predictive analytics. We believe that the power of data visualizations and interactive learning is transformative. We believe in continual learning and discovery for ourselves and our customers. Many customers use our tools to build their own explorations. We also develop custom software, designed collaboratively with our customers. Our software and services are used by businesses, universities, and government agencies around the world. Our simulations focus on training and strategic planning for current and aspiring mid- and senior-level managers. Our data visualizations, explorations, and predictive analytics focus on enabling organizations to understand and improve their decision-making. When creating our models, we use the system dynamics methodology, developed at MIT, to show the behavior of complex systems over time.
