Qlik and Fortune Launch First Ever “History of the Fortune 500” Data Analytics Site

Provides a Unique Visual Guided Experience of the Industry Standard Chronicle of Market Leaders

Qlik debuted the “History of the Fortune 500” interactive data analytics site in partnership with Fortune Magazine and timed with the publication of the 2020 Fortune 500 list. As the official analytics partner of the Fortune 500, Qlik developed a visual experience that takes users on a journey through the Fortune 500, enabling guided exploration of data related to company revenues, the historical events that shaped them, and the industry sector status and changes that emerged. Qlik and Fortune will also deliver a similar experience for the Fortune Global 500 later this year as part of a multi-year partnership.
