In the new world of remote and hybrid work, creating great employee experiences is more important than ever. That’s why I’m excited that ServiceNow is acquiring Mapwize, an indoor mapping and wayfinding company based in Lille, France. The future of work is hybrid. As more enterprises implement hybrid work regimes, they’ll need indoor mapping and wayfinding capabilities to help guide current and new employees to their workspaces.

In just the last two years, ServiceNow has doubled the features and functionalities of the Now Platform to manage larger, more complex workflows for the new world of hybrid work. As demand for digital transformation grows, so do expectations for effectively leveraging data to create highly personalized experiences for customers and employees and to unlock productivity across the enterprise.

We have been doing this organically, we rolled out our Ivanti Neurons hyper-automated platform last July, and we have also added to the platform’s capabilities and value with acquisitions.
