Sentence 109

Before GCorp also had their hands full with regards to new business development, working on pitches for the first round of presentation for ICICI Bank and HDFC Bank.  After GCorp also had its hands full with new business development, working on pitches for the first round of presentations for ICICI Bank and HDFC Bank. Notes When referring to a company use "its" not "their" 'Regards to' is unnecessary in the 'before' sentence.  There are two presentations - one for ICICI and another for HDFC, so the plural of presentation, with an 's' needs to be used.

Sentence 88

Before As it continues its spread, advertising agencies can leverage the advantage of ad tech's opportunities and develop better integrated connected across all channels and more data sharing.  After Advertising agencies can leverage ad tech's opportunities and develop better integration across all channels with more data sharing. Notes and comments: The sentence starts off with singular - "As it continues its spread", but moves on to plural "advertising agencies". I have done away with the initial phrase since it adds little value. You don't 'leverage the advantage'. 'Leverage' itself means to 'capitalize on'.  'develop better integrated connected' makes no sense. Have rephrased to ' develop better integration across' Replaced 'and' with 'with' since it is the right preposition to use.

Sentence 83

Before The first challenge companies’ face is deciding which data to use. There are large amounts of data that is generated internally such as customer transaction data, internal performance data, internal supply chain, and others. After The first challenge that companies face is deciding which data to use. Large amounts of data are generated internally, such as customer transaction data, internal performance data, internal supply chain and others.  Notes In the 'before' version, a possessive is made of companies in the plural. That is incorrect. The word companies itself is in the plural. Don't start a sentence with 'There are'. It adds to verbiage and sounds schoolgirlish. Removed comma before and since it is British English used here.
