    BEND, OR, September 09, 2021 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Ventana Research, the leading market advisory services firm in providing consulting, advisory, research and education (CARE) products to organizations worldwide, continues to advance the corporate values of the organization in excellence, reliability, and teamwork with its growth. The firm's dedication to its clients and use of its products, in what is called the Ventana eXperience (VX), requires a commitment to the expansion of the organization in sales and marketing. In this regard, Ventana Research announces the addition of Laura Milewski - senior account director, Leslie Smith - senior business development manager and Whittney Hines - senior digital marketing manager. All joined the team in August 2021.

Laura, as senior account director, is responsible for helping our clients find their ultimate success through our CARE portfolio of products. For over 20 years, she has sold to the top 25 technology companies globally with her expertise in delivering solutions that solve business problems using market research and insights. Prior to Ventana Research, Laura worked at companies like IDC and Strategy Analytics. Her favorite experience in sales includes walking data centers around the world and traveling globally for client meetings and conferences. Laura was born and raised in Stamford, Connecticut and now resides in Massachusetts.

"We have many decisions to make when opportunities present themselves and coming to Ventana Research was simple. I have been given the opportunity to provide technology companies with third party objective thought leadership and advisory services with digital content that helps them to market better, sell more and grow their business. Today we are enabling our clients on their path to excellence through collaboration and engagement."

"Joining Ventana Research was the best decision I could have made – not just for my career, but also for the quality of work life. From the top down, in every department, leadership and connection has been a priority from day one. What is most amazing about the company is that they walk their talk. Ventana Research does not just provide present and cutting-edge research on solutions for various marketplaces to other companies, it is the Ventana eXperience to apply their expertise and knowledge of the market and to do it themselves. I am excited to bring my experience to the revenue team to continue the mission of providing technology companies with tailored solutions from the Ventana Research CARE product line."
