Our cutting-edge platform serves thousands of users across the globe, empowering enterprises to engage, motivate, and retain their most valuable assets—their people.

Blink has been named in Sifted’s Top 100 fastest growing companies, G2’s report for best employee engagement software and recognised by Gartner as a leading software provider in their annual market guide for Employee Communications Application.
