BOSTON, Jan. 18, 2018 -- French technology company Akeneo, a leading provider of open source product information management (PIM) solutions, today announced that it has acquired Sigmento, an Israel-based technology company specializing in product data automation.
The next frontier of innovation in ecommerce technology is happening at the intersection of data intelligence and automation, which is Sigmento's core strength. Having Yoav and his talented team join our #PIMforAll movement and offer best-in-class AI driven ecommerce solutions will significantly differentiate Akeneo and allow us to enable customers to further deliver compelling product experiences.
Akeneo is an industry-acclaimed PIM leader with hundreds of enterprise clients around the world. The company's expertise brings tremendous benefits to Sigmento's existing clients, and I'm excited about embarking on this new chapter as part of the Akeneo family.
Sigmento’s founders will join the Akeneo management team. The combined development team will continue to advance Sigmento’s core technology while integrating it into Akeneo’s current and future PIM products. Sigmento’s Israeli office will become Akeneo’s fourth global outpost, joining existing locations in Boston, MA; Nantes, France; and Düsseldorf, Germany.
