Built From Real Financial Trenches

We started glowlyblaze after spending years watching talented analysts struggle with modeling tools that never quite matched reality. The gap between theory and practice kept widening, and someone needed to close it.

How We Got Here

Back in 2018, I was consulting for a mid-sized investment firm in Bangkok. Their analyst team was brilliant but spent half their time fixing broken models instead of doing actual analysis. The frustration was palpable.

That's when it clicked. Most training programs taught financial modeling like it was 2005. They ignored Python integration, skipped scenario planning automation, and never addressed the messy data issues analysts face daily.

So we built something different. Not a course that checks boxes, but training that reflects how modern financial analysis actually works. We tested everything with working analysts before launching a single program.

Six years later, we've trained 847 analysts across Thailand and neighboring markets. The approach hasn't changed much because it was grounded in reality from day one.
