Integrate.ai announces Advisory Board and strategic investment round

It’s an exciting day at integrate.ai — we’re pleased to announce the creation of a strategic advisory board that will advise our company as we continue to develop our next generation artificial intelligence platform.

The members of our new strategic advisory board bring a wealth of knowledge and experience from a variety of industries, and will be tremendous resources to the integrate.ai leadership team, strengthening our ability to apply AI to drive customer engagement and revenue growth.

As part of the creation of this advisory board, integrate.ai has also closed a strategic investment round of $4.625M (USD), comprising key investors, including advisory board members, employees, and leading AI-focused venture capital firms Georgian Partners and Real Ventures.
