EQMS is a rapidly growing industry, predicted to exceed USD 13.9 billion by 2025, according to a recent report by Grand View Research, Inc and we believe there is a big opportunity to build a market-leading company in this fast-growing and important cloud space."
"This strategic investment will spur additional innovations in CQ solutions that leverage AI, Predictive Analytics and the Salesforce Platform," says Atulya Risal, co-founder and CTO of ComplianceQuest.
