BusinessCloud can reveal its MarTech 50 innovation ranking for 2022.

Readers of the online technology publication and an independent judging panel have together decided the 50 companies blazing a technology trail in marketing.

The MarTech 50 – supported by digital transformation experts Sputnik Digital – celebrates businesses of all sizes creating original tech solutions for companies engaging in marketing, consumer research and advertising.

CitizenMe, an ethical marketing technology which anonymises users’ data, tops the ranking.

The company’s consumer research and user-testing platform has been used by global brands including Barclays, Sainsbury’s, Unilever, GSK and the BBC.

In second spot is LoopMe, which has built an AI technology to maximise the effectiveness of mobile ads. Rounding out a top three of London-based companies is GWI, developers of consumer insight data for marketing.

Manchester-based The Insights Family is fourth. The company is a global leader in kids, parents and family market intelligence, providing real-time data on their attitudes, behaviour and consumption patterns.
