The dissolution process will be concluded by March 30, 2024.

We are proud of the achievements and relationships we’ve built over the years. As we move forward, we remain committed to ensuring a smooth transition for everyone involved.”
We would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to everyone who has been a part of Data Description. We appreciate the support and trust you have placed in us over the years.
