Bridgeway Company, a global innovation strategy company, venture builder, digital innovation hub and accelerator, is announcing a partnership with Segment, the leading provider of the customer data infrastructure that helps businesses put their customers first.
For years, companies have relied on Customer Relationship Management (CRM) to understand their customers, making it the centerpiece of customer data stacks for offline sales models. However, in today’s digital era, CRM is no longer enough. Companies must use dozens of business applications in their customer data stack, but they don’t have the data infrastructure necessary to integrate these applications seamlessly or respect customer privacy preferences consistently.
Segment’s technology empowers businesses to deliver seamless, personalized customer experiences across every channel and touchpoint, while also respecting user privacy and preferences through first-party data.
Segment makes analytics easy for startups. Instrument your web & mobile app with a beautiful analytics API, and integrate 250+ tools (like Google Analytics, Amplitude, Customer.io, Redshift, etc.) with the flip of a switch.

A New Infrastructure for the Customer-First Era
Segment’s Customer Data Infrastructure can capture customer interactions from every business touchpoint, ensure that the data is accurate and consistent across the organization, and automatically route that data to hundreds of business applications across a company’s entire customer data stack.
With a centralized infrastructure to route first-party customer data to whichever application requires it, companies of all sizes are able to build better products, make smarter business decisions, exceed customer expectations, and ensure that the privacy of their customers is consistently met.
“CRMs and their associated suites are no longer able to deliver great customer experiences,” said Peter Reinhardt, co-founder and CEO of Segment. “With the rapid proliferation of new digital tools and customer touchpoints, the global market opportunity for Customer Data Infrastructure is huge.”
