CreateFuture Secures Strategic Tech Partnership With Skyscanner
EDINBURGH, Scotland--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- CreateFuture has secured a technology partnership with Skyscanner which will see the digital consultancy work closely with the global travel marketplace's tech teams across its Edinburgh, Glasgow, London, and Barcelona offices in areas including audience experience, data and AI tooling, and app experience. Euan Andrews, CEO and Founder of CreateFuture, said: 'Skyscanner began life here in Scotland, and is now the leading global travel app that scans over 80 billion prices daily. We are excited to be working with their world-class engineering team to accelerate, grow, and contribute to their future success.' Andrew Phillips, Chief Technology Officer at Skyscanner, said: 'CreateFuture's proven capabilities, culture match, and overall collaborative approach made them the ideal choice for us, and we fully expect their team to be instrumental in helping us to achieve our engineering goals.' CreateFuture was appointed after a multi-stage process from a national and international pool of consultancies, and was recognised for its engineering expertise, cultural alignments, and track record around delivery. Skyscanner joins a client list at CreateFuture which includes PayPal, adidas, NatWest, Baillie Gifford, MoneySavingExpert, Penguin Random House, Simple Online Healthcare, Multiverse, and FanDuel. Euan Andrews added: 'As a Scotland-headquartered company, we think it's notable that we're now working with the country's two tech unicorns - Skycanner and FanDuel - and that this says something about the continuing evolution of the Scottish technology ecosystem as a whole. And for our business, it not only strengthens our position at the forefront of digital transformation in Scotland, but helps to lay the ground for further expansion across the UK and internationally.' Founded in 2010 by CEO Euan Andrews, CreateFuture now has around 500 people working across 3 UK offices plus a European base - delivering end-to-end digital transformation and covering CX strategy, product innovation, AI enablement, cloud and infrastructure, and data and analytics.
