Legacy Education Alliance Inc. (OTC:LEAI) This past Friday, Legacy Education Alliance Inc. announced that its subsidiary, Legacy Live, had launched the first stage of a major new development initiative.

That will help in the centralization of data from a range of sources including social media, customer interactions, and accounting among others.
The deployment of data lakes helps with scaling and adaptation to new forms of data. It also offers insights in real-time and therefore leads to better cost management and flexibility in marketing strategies.

He noted that the world was transforming digitally, and it was time for the company to become a digital economy business as well.
