Hello, and welcome back to my Blog!
Executive Summary
The People Analytics market is projected to grow from $1.8+ billion in 2023 to $4.78 billion by 2030. There is a growing demand for this capability fueled by client’s needs and use cases around skill intelligence, talent mobility, well-being, productivity, engagement, team performance, recruiting etc.
Last month I discussed with three F500 HR clients the path-forward to build its People Analytics capability and HR data strategy. Common themes I hear:
a. Inefficient data architecture with multiple legacy HR systems
b. Silo, repetitive and limited HR data standardization
c. Complex HR technology stack with limited integration
d. Lack of data governance and data quality controls
On the vendor side, the people analytics ecosystem is evolving and bringing AI-enabled offerings to solve the problems listed above and, as a result, between 2022 and 2023 I have seen multiple funding rounds injecting capital and key acquisitions:
Capital Funding 2023
• One Model ($41M, venture-round and developed a partnership with Deloitte)
• HR Signal ($1.6, pre-seed)
• Horsefly (investment not disclosed, private equity round)
• ChartHop ($20M, series C)
Capital Funding 2022
• Revelio Labs ($15M, series A)
• Knoetic ($36 M, series B)
• TechWolf (€10 M, series A)
• Crunchr (not disclosed, series B)
Acquisitions
• Visier acquired Yva (Visier is one of the leaders in this market and introduced Gen AI assistant called Vee)
• WilsonHCG acquired Claro Analytics
• Crosschq acquired TalentWall
• Hireroad acquired People Insights
Others
• Orgnostic announced its generative AI capabilities are now available as Slack integration.
