NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Conversational Commerce specialist, Flamingo Customer Experience Inc, has announced to shareholders that the company is to be 100 percent acquired by ASX listed, Cre8tek Ltd.
Flamingo provides cloud-based Intelligent Guided Selling and Guided Customer On-boarding platforms that enable companies to increase online sales conversion and customer retention rates. It does this using patented software that learns how customers and employees interact and then automates this process.
Based in New York and with an office in Sydney, current customers include major companies such as Nationwide Insurance, New York Daily Gazette, Prime Financial and Quay Credit Union. Flamingo has a strong sales pipeline targeting the financial services sector and the business is forecast to deliver continued growth both in the US and Australian markets.
Flamingo CEO and Founder, Dr Catriona Wallace, said, “We were delighted to be approached by the Cre8tek board during our recent capital raise activities. The ASX is a leading global platform and its investors are very aware of and supportive of Australia’s transition from a resource to an innovation led economy. As an Australian led and developed technology company, we look forward to working with Cre8tek to deliver on the opportunities that high-tech start ups like Flamingo can provide for investors.”
Along with Dr Wallace, Flamingo directors, Cathie Reid and Paul Hunyor, will join the Cre8tek board post completion of the acquisition, with the full Flamingo management team also remaining in place.
Cre8tek will undertake a capital raising of not less than $1.5M to further develop the Flamingo artificial intelligence platform, with more details to be outlined in the forthcoming prospectus.
