Everything you need to know about our union, and what this acquisition means for you
If you’ve been keeping an eye on our company updates, or tuning into our latest webinars, you’ll be well aware that our friends at Lightfold have been transitioning into the Cloudwerx family. We have recently retired the Lightfold brand, and now operate under the single Cloudwerx banner.
Since the transition began, we’ve been laser-focused on providing both our valued Cloudwerx and Lightfold customers with the same five-star service, supported by the same incredible people. As we strengthen our offering, and bring new capabilities to our clients, we wanted to take this opportunity to explain in detail what this means for you going forward. In this post, we’ll walk you through the key elements of our merger, why it matters, and the changes you can expect over the next few months.
An exciting new chapter in the Cloudwerx story
This acquisition is an important milestone in the growth of our services here at Cloudwerx. As the Salesforce world continues to grow and evolve, we realised the potential for bringing the powerhouse capabilities of Lightfold into our offering. If you’re unfamiliar, Lightfold, a Brisbane-based company, specialises in the Modern Data Stack and Generative AI. Their innovative, human-centred approach to design, Tesseract, provides a way to transform complex business requirements into features that drive genuine value generation.
Lightfold has earned an exceptional reputation for innovation in the fields of data analytics and Generative AI, and together, we felt we could offer our clients a more robust, customer-centric solution that would allow them to turn their Salesforce data into powerful and actionable insights. In turn, these insights would help our clients drive growth, enhance customer experience and build stronger organisations by making data-driven decisions.
“This partnership is set to redefine the landscape of tech consulting, by providing our clients with a broader range of advanced, data-driven services to maintain a competitive edge. Both companies share a vision for driving business transformation through advanced technology, making this partnership a natural fit.”
Toby Wilcock, Cloudwerx CEO
Combined expertise to enhance your day-to-day operations
If you’re a long-term Cloudwerx or Lightfold customer, you might be wondering what kind of changes you can expect to see now that our companies have officially integrated.
For the most part, you’ll experience the same five-star people-first approach and expert guidance. It’s a given!
But what you will see change is an overall enhancement in every aspect of the Cloudwerx service offering. For example:
- By leveraging Lightfold’s Tesseract Methodology™, we’ll be able to create technology strategies that truly revolve around your unique business needs (with a specific focus on your people and customers)
- The integration between your front-end applications and back-end operations will become even more seamless, centralising your data across your business for more effective outcomes
- We’ll be able to turn your complex and sensitive data into clearer, more actionable insights, empowering your people to make informed decisions and build richer relationships with your customers.
- With Lightfold’s additional AI capabilities, you can take advantage of the latest Generative AI advancements, such as Salesforce AgentForce.
And for our incredible Lightfold clients? We expect that you’ll appreciate the wealth of opportunities that our level of access to Salesforce can offer your organisation. From top-tier expertise in marketing automation to unmatched cloud services, you’ll no longer need to find multiple partners to meet your strategic goals. Instead, everything you need to manage your customer interactions and data will be available — all under one roof.
“The combination of the two businesses will enable Cloudwerx to unlock operational efficiencies and deliver insight that our customers had never thought possible. Together we are excited to be offering real world data analytics and AI solutions as one highly specialised team.”
Roger Burgess, Non-Executive Chairman and Co-Founder, Cloudwerx
