Our take
Poppulo delivers the world’s first communications experience platform, Poppulo Harmony, that unites multiple communications channels in one content creation and publishing experience. Through the Harmony platform, businesses can improve both internal and external communications, improving employee engagement and the customer experience.
Poppulo was first launched as an email marketing solution, but it underwent a dramatic rebranding in order to focus on internal communications. This move proved successful, with the company going on to serve thousands of businesses including Santander, Rolls-Royce and ASOS. And in 2021, a merger with Four Winds saw Poppulo valued at around $1B, establishing it as a major player in the communications market.
It was in 2022 that Poppulo released the Harmony platform, adding customer communication capabilities to its employee engagement toolkit, and becoming a one-stop-shop for all its clients' communication needs. Since then, the company has focused on international expansion and strenghthening its leadership team, while contunuing to invest in AI. Most recently, Poppulo became the first digital signage provider to achieve ISO 42001 certification for Responsible AI, reinforcing its position as a trusted, enterprise-ready platform as AI becomes increasingly central to workplace communications.
