BELGRADE, SERBIA [Nov 30, 2022] – Insightful, a leading workforce analytics and productivity software, has been named as a potential future unicorn by Sifted. Unicorn status is given to companies that achieve a valuation of $1billion+. 

Backed by the Financial Times, Sifted is the leading media brand for the European startup community. The outlet named Insightful as a company to watch in their article Are these 9 companies the next southeast European unicorns? 

Key Details

The Balkans: Europe’s New Tech Hotspot

Sifted’s list of hot tech companies focused specifically on the fast-growing tech scene in the Balkans, a region long known for its affordable, high-caliber engineering talent.

“Although we’ve experienced some incredible growth in recent times, we’re still only just getting started, and we’re now moving up market to work with bigger, global companies. We look forward to making Sifted’s unicorn prediction come true in the future.”
