“The addition of JCG’s data analytics capabilities enhances our portfolio firmwide, and we plan to strategically grow this practice area in the future,” said DHG CEO Matt Snow in a statement. “We welcome JCG to our DHG team and our Fort Worth office, and we are excited to continue to provide our clients with innovative service offerings and solutions.”
