As organizations reimagine the future of work and the hybrid workplace, the employee digital experience will emerge as a key component to maintaining company culture. The past year has led companies to create experiences for their employees that are personalized, engaging and built on connections with a source of truth.
The world is reopening and the future of work is here. We have fortunately made it past the worst of a worldwide pandemic and are now thinking about what comes next. Conversations about returning to the office are starting, the shift to a semblance of normalcy is here but didn’t the immediate rush to work from the home showcase that remote work is here to stay?
Today I’m excited to announce that Simpplr has raised $32 million in Series C funding led by Tola Capital with continued investment from Salesforce Ventures, Norwest Capital, and George Still Ventures. This new round of funding will help us accelerate our vision of building the penultimate unified employee engagement platform.
For over 25 years, the company Intranet has been a private online network for employees and authorized users to communicate, engage in collaborative projects, and develop content.

Every year, Simpplr Research conducts a study on the current state of internal communications. The State of Internal Communications 2020 (pre-COVID-19) report is Simpplr Research’s most downloaded report and provides useful benchmarking data for internal communications professionals. Insights from this report should still be relevant for most programs.
