Founder story

Edgenet was originally founded in Brentwood, Tennessee, as a cloud product data and configuration software provider. Built to resolve severe data fragmentation between product manufacturers and online retail channels, Edgenet scaled its SaaS infrastructure into a market leader for product content syndication. The platform was strategically acquired and integrated into Syndigo to expand global PXM capabilities.
