Together, we will further expand FACT-Finder’s strong growth path, with a special focus on the new FACT-Finder Next Generation, customer support and internationalization.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Since the early days of e-commerce, FACT-Finder has risen from a startup to one of the most successful technology brands. We have been developing AI-based search technologies since the early 2000’s to improve the customer experience in online stores. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today, FACT-Finder is the European market leader for search<\/a>, navigation <\/a>and merchandising<\/a>, with over 1,800 digital retailers relying on our solutions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the addition of a new shareholder, GENUI<\/a>, FACT-Finder is now taking the next step to further expand its market position. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Finding the ideal partnership<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

“We were looking for a highly entrepreneurial partner and have now found the ideal partner in GENUI, who shares our vision for the future of FACT-Finder,” says Carsten Kraus, the founder and previous CEO of FACT-Finder. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

“GENUI entrepreneur Amit Shah, the founder of e-commerce analytics software Jirafe and former CRO of SAP Hybris, will support the company as Chairman of the Entrepreneur Advisory Board,” continues Kraus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“We have therefore been able to win over an entrepreneurial personality with highly relevant experience and a network that will help open up new markets for us,” he adds. “I am personally very pleased about this.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The future of FACT-Finder<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Carsten Kraus and Andreas Drechsler, previous COO, will hand over the management of the company to Emile Bloemen, who in his 15-year e-commerce career has held positions including Global Vice President at SAP Hybris and has played a key role in shaping the success of the SAP subsidiary. Kraus himself will remain closely associated with the company as an Entrepreneurial Advisory Board for Innovations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“I am excited to be part of this great team,” says Bloemen. “The year 2020 has changed the world of retail forever – the digital shopping experience is more important than ever before. With FACT-Finder, we give our customers everything they need to take full advantage of the current momentum in e-commerce. Our top priority is to help our customers achieve their goals.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He adds, “On this foundation, we will invest in the expansion of FACT-Finder’s technological market leadership and heavily in the area of customer success, because it is the driving force behind everything we do.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
