The Bloomberg Terminal provides access to over 10,000 applications that power global financial markets. Launchpad is the workspace product that brings these applications together into cohesive, customizable environments used daily by analysts, traders, and investors around the world.

We partner closely with engineers building the desktop runtime platform, UI toolkit engineers, and backend infrastructure teams to deliver a cohesive foundation for the Terminal.
