Our take
Leadership meetings are necessary, and hugely influential, but all too often a drain on time. Indeed, there’s a wealth of evidence showing that only 50% of meeting time is well spent, whether they’re conducted in person or online.
Sherpany is attempting to make both online and office-based meetings more productive, with a SaaS offering built to accelerate meeting set-up, agenda setting, decision-making, document access, and follow-up. Crucially, the platform can work in combination with popular video conferencing apps like Microsoft Teams and Zoom, rather than competing with them.
Like many meeting-focused software companies, Sherpany went through a real growth spurt during the height of the pandemic and now works with a number of high-profile European companies like Zurich Insurance Group, Röchling, and Axpo. This growth led to its acquisition by SaaS platform Datasite in 2024. With hybrid and remote work set to stay for many enterprises, however, there’s plenty of cause for encouragement that Sherpany can continue its growth under its current ownership.
