Bengaluru’s Appiness Acquires San Francisco AI Firm iLumaLab

Appiness​‍​‌‍​‍‌​‍​‌‍​‍‌ Interactive Private Limited, a Bengaluru-based strategic technology and business consulting startup, today announced the acquisition of iLumaLab, a San Francisco–based AI services company founded by emerging AI innovator Patrik Šlachta.

This acquisition supports Appiness’ AI Centre of Excellence Program (AI-CoE) and is a big step in its global expansion journey to the North American market.

Appiness, a startup, was born out of the idea of using technology to solve complex business problems, and now it is using its AI ecosystem, Appyverse, to provide intelligent and human-centric solutions.

Among many contenders, the choice of iLumaLab was the easiest due to its inventive approach to tailored AI experiences by melding automation, data intelligence, and experimental design. The involvement of iLumaLab with Appiness not only ignites fresh innovation but also escalates the startup's ability to provide transformative AI solutions to global enterprises.
