Next-Generation Business Solutions Win ISG Startup Challenges

Digital document solution, AI-powered content management system and conversational commerce platform selected by live audience polling at virtual ISG events

Tech entrepreneurs with innovative approaches to digital document conversion, machine-learning insights for automakers and conversational commerce for retailers won ISG Startup Challenges at three recent virtual events hosted by Information Services Group, a leading global technology research and advisory firm.

At the virtual ISG Future Workplace Summit on June 30, a live audience poll selected 1WordFlow as the ISG Startup Challenge winner after hearing Bruce Wren, CEO, pitch an independent panel of judges on his company’s digital document solution, which transforms analog documents into digital webpages at scale. 1WordFlow dramatically decreases the time required to search documents for key information by enabling instant access to any page, without downloading.
