Growth and Foresight Analytics Leader 4i Welcomes New Team Members to U.S., Ukraine Offices

DEERFIELD, Ill. - July 13, 2015 - PRLog -- 4i Inc., a market leader in growth strategy and foresight, announces the addition of Senior Associate John Hutchinson to its team in Minneapolis. The firm also welcomes two new team members -- Vasyl Gvozdov and Tatyana Polyvana – in Kiev, Ukraine.

Hutchinson joins 4i from Nielsen, where he worked with General Mills. He began his career at Nielsen as an analyst, with prior experience at Tennant Company and Best Buy. Hutchinson completed his MBA in 2011 at University of St. Thomas in Minnesota.

“John’s breadth of experience and his passion for results, whether he’s running his own business in delivering health care or probing for possibilities in retail or tech, immediately stood out for us,” said Dr. Eugene Roytburg, Managing Partner at 4i. “His expertise in analytics begins with data, but data is meaningless without deft interpretation and strategic application. John excels in precisely what our clients need, because he delivers the growth-oriented foresight, actionable insights and smart strategy.”

Also joining 4i is Vasyl Gvozdov, whose expertise in logistics and analytics previously was developed at Proctor & Gamble Trading and L’Oreal Ukraine. Gvozdov holds a master’s degree in Intellectual Systems of Decision-Making from Kiev Polytechnic Institute, the national technical university of Ukraine.

Tatyana Polyvana also joins the Kiev office, and offers 4i clients her expertise in strategic planning, marketing and data analysis, product development, and international growth and forecasting. Polyvana received her doctoral degree in international economics from Taras Shevchenko National University in Kiev, and a master’s degree in international relations from Maastricht University in the Netherlands. Previously, Tatyana worked with Havas Worldwide Ukraine, as well as the International Centre for Policy Studies.

“We are so impressed with both Vasyl and Tatyana, and we’re pleased to offer our clients the exceptional expertise that they represent,” said Roytburg. “As 4i continues to emerge as a global leader in data-driven analytics and growth consulting, we’ve been committed to acquiring top-tier talent. It’s clear that these new additions advance our competitive edge, and we welcome their drive for growth and innovation.”

4i continues to focus on developing solutions-driven engagements, and draws on the entrepreneurship and thought leadership that allow companies to use insight as a primary decision-enabling function, Roytburg added. Under 4i's guidance, clients have been able to move from simple insights based on past and present data, to analytics-driven foresight that drives a better understanding of how to take advantage of future growth opportunities.
