Meltwater

In 2001, we were two people, a coffee machine and $15,000. Our address was Shack15, an office space that sat in a shipyard in Oslo, Norway.

As the first online media monitoring company, we realized the value of monitoring and analyzing online data. We believed that shaping the world's data into insights would open the door to endless opportunity for impact. We were right.

And just like that, our footprint grew across Scandinavia, the UK, Europe, the US and Asia-Pacific. By 2008, we had feet on the ground—and a growing customer list—on every continent.

But we didn't stop there. We became one of the first companies to offer social listening and social analytics. And over the past five years, we completed eight acquisitions, leveraging AI and data science to give our customers a complete suite of solutions across media, social, consumer and sales intelligence.

Today, we're proud to be Meltwater. Many other companies have taken a different path to growth, but we aren't like many companies. We are Meltwater, and that's what makes us unique.
