“In the New Economy, we’re seeing businesses come under increasing pressure to optimise acquisition, retention, and digital journeys. The inQuba Journey platform provides an integrated analytics and orchestration environment that brings together diverse data sets without requiring bespoke development, resulting in rapid speed to customer journey insight and intervention impact.

We’re fortunate that our investors have a global mindset and reach to optimise our next stage of growth.”

Customer Journey Management

Customer journey management tracks, analyses and optimises behavioral trends and technology to ensure an enhanced customer experience. The objective of customer journey management is to streamline the customer experience.  

inQuba utilises diverse data sets of transactional and perceptual data, advanced analytics, as well as machine learning. The data is used to gain insight into the customer’s experience, journeys, and behavior. 

Keet van Zyl, partner, and co-founder of Knife Capital, comments on the success of inQuba.

“In the new digital economy we’re seeing businesses come under mounting pressure to increase customer acquisition and retention but the tools and know-how to do this are often scattered across the organisation. inQuba has been so successful around the world because they can rapidly pull together, analyse, and act on large volumes of disparate data. We’re backing experienced founders with proven execution capabilities in Renzon and Rossini, both Endeavor Entrepreneurs – the high-impact global entrepreneur network. This investment allows inQuba to continuously remain ahead of the curve in delivering the customer experience and orchestration technology of the future.”
