DENVER, January 4, 2018 — Digital transformation agency HS2 Solutions today announced that it has completed the acquisition of LunaMetrics, an award-winning analytics consultancy that specializes in using data to help businesses illuminate the bridge between marketing, user behavior and ROI. The acquisition brings an industry-leading digital and web analytics consulting offering to HS2’s broad range of digital transformation capabilities across strategy, development, e-commerce, experience design, and digital marketing.

LunaMetrics serves a diverse group of leading marketers and brands including BJ’s Wholesale Club, CareerBuilder, Caterpillar, GNC, Leading Hotels of the World, PBS, and Teach for America, and is a Google Analytics Certified Partner and Google Premier Partner.
