With Blink, frontline leaders can align their teams, unify their systems, and drive their businesses forward while gaining a granular, data-driven view of employee engagement, sentiment and turnover across their workforce. The SaaS startup is designed from the perspective of the online worker and aims to improve employee experience amidst a global recruitment crisis. The result is a frustrated, unmotivated workforce suffering from high staff turnover, low engagement, customer satisfaction, margins, and an inability to move fast and adapt.

Today there are approximately 2.7 billion frontline workers globally, accounting for 80% of the world’s workforce. Founded in London in 2015, the company offers an all-in-one employee app for frontline workers, providing them with a ‘digital front door’ on their phone.
