Head of Data Science
Inga began her career as an experimental particle physicist. She spent four years analyzing proton collision data from the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), searching for signatures of the Higgs boson. At the LHC, she also developed software that had to quickly decide which collisions to discard and which ones to send to storage, all in under 200 milliseconds.
After completing her PhD, Inga worked as a data scientist in New York City. There, she built algorithms for an advanced ad-trading platform used in more than 40 markets. She then moved to Tokyo and started working at Virtusize, where she currently leads a team of data scientists in creating optimal solutions for online fashion shopping.

E-commerce was not created with fashion in mind. It was meant for standardized products like books and electronics, where factors like fit, feel, or comparison with items already owned aren't crucial to the purchase decision.
Over the past 20 years, not much has changed. The structure of a fashion product page remains typically underwhelming: a few visuals, a price tag, and an “Add to Cart” button. Very little has happened to inspire and guide shoppers.
We see an opportunity to reimagine how fashion shopping works online, with data as the driving force. Many brands and retailers invest heavily in data collection, but they struggle to turn that data into the kind of shopping experience that reliably converts visitors into customers.
もともと、オンラインショッピングは着心地やサイズに左右されるファッションアイテムではなく、電化製品などの標準化しやすい製品を購入するためにつくられたものです。
この20年間でその構造に大きな変化は起きていません。様々なファッションアイテムをオンラインで購入することができる現在でも、商品ページにあるのは必要最低限の情報と購入ボタンだけ。ECユーザー体験はないがしろにされてきたのです。
そんなファッションECの現状を見直した時に、私たちが注目したのがデータの活用です。データ収集に力を入れているブランドやアパレル企業は多くありましたが、集めたデータを生かしてそれをユーザー体験につなげられていなかったのです。
これこそが、私たちが解決すべき課題でした。
「心から満足できるファッションとの出会いを」このミッションのもと、Virtusizeは、誰もが自分らしいサイズ感をみつけることができるソリューションを提案し、さらにはサイズという枠を超えた理想のアイテム探しをサポートしています。
Virtusizeのサービスを利用されている毎月300万人のユーザーとともに、新しいファッションECのカタチを創造しています。
원래 전자 상거래는 패션을 염두에 두고 만들어진 것이 아니라 책이나 전자 제품같은 표준화된 제품을 위한 것입니다. 이런 제품들은 착용시 핏감이나, 이미 가지고 있는 소품들과 얼마나 잘 맞는지를 비교해보는 등의 일이 구매에 결정적 영향을 주지는 않습니다.
지난 20년동안에도 큰 변화는 없었습니다. 일반적으로 패션분야 홈페이지도 역시 앞서 언급한 표준화 제품과 마친가지로 제품사진 몇 장, 가격 그리고 장바구니 버튼만 있습니다. 따라서 패션 사이트를 방문한 고객에게 영감을 준다거나 가이드라인을 제시하는 일은 거의 없었습니다.
그러나 우리는 가능성을 보았습니다.
우리는 온라인 쇼핑을 재해석 할 수 있는 기회를 보았고 온라인상에서 패션 아이템 구매가 어떻게 난관에 부딪히는 지를 확인으며 데이터 활용에 그 해답이 있다고 믿습니다. 많은 브랜드들이 데이터 수집에 엄청난 투자를 하고 있으나 그 수집 데이터를 사용해 고객에게 흥미있고 매력적인 경험으로 만들어 주기에는 여러가지 많은 어려움이 있습니다. 그 결과, 사이트 방문자를 성공적으로 고객으로 유치하지는 못했습니다.
그래서 '버츄사이즈'가 있습니다.
버츄사이즈는 패션 빅데이터 회사로 재미있고 직관적인 솔루션으로 사용자들이 진정 좋아하는 패션을 찾을 수 있도록 하는 것을 목표로 하고 있습니다. 그래서 우리는 모두가 핏 추천을 쉽고 빠르게 받을 수 있도록 최선을 다해 일하고 있습니다
우리의 목표는 이런 핏 관련 문제들을 해결하는것이며 데이터는 우리의 나침반입니다.
