"We are thrilled to welcome Anthony and Annie to our team,” remarked Tony Huck, Global Head of Business Development at BestEx Research. “Their deep product knowledge and industry expertise will be invaluable as we continue to innovate and expand. With Anthony expanding our reach on the West Coast and Annie joining the team at our headquarters in Stamford, we are even better positioned to deliver exceptional service to our clients and share our award-winning platform with new users."
