Wyzetalk

Series A in 2014
2.8 Billion frontline workers make up 80% of the world's working population, but 85% of frontline workers are disengaged, thus disconnected from their organisations. The impact is disastrous on morale, affecting productivity and the business bottom line. Harnessing the power of mobile technology, our platform bridges this gap. The multi-channel platform (mobile, app and USSD) provides a connection in the palm of their hands that improves their day-to-day lives by connecting them with their organisations. Combining Wyzetalk's employee experience platform with our frontline industry expertise we connect hundreds of thousands of deskless workers, providing access to information and digitised processes, saving time and money.
