company: Bloomberg L.P.

Title: DIY Bloomberg
Abstract:

Bloomberg started off by creating 22 trademark 'Terminals'for Merrill Lynch in 1983, delivering financial analytics and market data straight to the trader. Bloomberg now provides over 25,000 (and expanding) analytic tools and financial data products through the 'Terminal' to over 300,000 clients worldwide.

Go behind the scenes and see how Bloomberg overcomes the challenges of increasing demand and how through the use of computers and technology, it all fits together so that you too could make your very own Bloomberg in your bedroom.
