**About DLIMI**
DLIMI (DLI Market Intelligence) uses a unique and multi-dimensional view of healthcare data to provide the best and most comprehensive Business Intelligence (BI) solutions that enable our clients to increase market share and stay ahead of the competition.

The platform we are building services the entire Scandinavian Life Science Industry with daily, weekly, and monthly data on the sale and usage of medicines in both hospitals and pharmacies. The platform is an event-driven solution by fully applying the event-driven architecture paradigm alongside modern thinking, such as evolutionary architectures, event-storming, microservice as evolutionary architecture, incremental design, continuous delivery, design for observability, automation, etc.
