According to Fosway, Strategic Challengers “provide solid performance with solutions that have a richer and broader suite of capability than most other solutions in the Fosway 9-Grid™.”

Beamery continues to expand its position as a strategic partner for global enterprises by enabling organizations to make faster, fairer, and more data-driven talent decisions – powered by AI, and underpinned by connected skills intelligence.

“We’re proud to be recognized once again as a Strategic Challenger by Fosway,” said Sultan Saidov, Co-Founder and CEO of Beamery. “But what matters most to us is the growing impact we’re seeing with our customers: helping them unify their skills, task and talent data, activate more diverse and proactive recruitment strategies, and ultimately unlock the potential of their workforce: through fair and agile talent decisions, rooted in a deep understanding of how tasks and skills are evolving.”

“In a challenging TA market, joining up a strategic, skills-based view of internal and external talent is critical,” said David Wilson, founder and CEO of Fosway Group. “Beamery’s focus on helping customers on their transformation journey towards a  skills-led, agile approach to talent and workforce planning has seen it named as a Strategic Challenger in this year’s 9-Grid™ for Talent Acquisition.”
