Lightcast Acquires Talent Intelligence Provider Stratigens  
With Stratigens’ Talent Intelligence Software, Lightcast Expands Global Workforce Data  
Capabilities

(Moscow, Idaho) – Aug. 27, 2024 – Lightcast, a provider of trusted global labor market data,  
analytics, and expert guidance, announced today that it acquired Stratigens, a UK-based talent  
intelligence provider. Lightcast will add Stratigens’ industry-leading team in data science and  
profiles data, offering customers an enriched understanding of the available talent supply in  
different markets. With the acquisition of Stratigens, Lightcast further solidifies its position as the  
most trusted source for comprehensive global labor market data.

Founded in 2017 by Alison Ettridge, Stratigens’ team of data scientists compile insights and  
search analytics that help companies solve business challenges, including: identifying new skill  
pools; attracting and growing skillsets; understanding where to grow, relocate, or consolidate  
and retain talent; and supporting mergers and acquisitions. Since 2022, Stratigens has been  
leveraging its proprietary algorithms, combined with Lightcast’s labor market data, to help  
companies like Stryker and EY make informed decisions about skills demand, talent, and  
locations to optimize their growth strategies.

“Lightcast and Stratigens share customer-centric philosophies,” said Chris Kibarian, Lightcast  
CEO. “Alison’s approach to helping customers make sense of the data with the solid platform  
her team built is consultative, high touch, and collaborative—she’s a true partner. By coming  
together, we’ll have even richer talent intelligence data to help more companies develop  
data-driven strategies for building a future-ready workforce.”

Ettridge will join Lightcast as Director of Global Talent Intelligence.

“With Lightcast and Stratigens coming together, the depth of data quality and intelligence will  
enable companies to plan competitive talent and growth strategies,” said Ettridge. “It’s exciting  
that we’re now able to offer customers the most well-rounded approach possible. Stratigens’  
creativity and willingness to support the client merged with the quality and resources within  
Lightcast is a winning combination.”

In February, Lightcast announced an expansion of its global labor data to help business and  
talent leaders make better skills-based decisions regardless of geographies, languages, or job  
taxonomies.

"For years we've been focused on expanding our geographic footprint, providing our customers  
with a more holistic view of the global workforce," said JP Moran, Executive Vice President of  
Enterprise and Staffing at Lightcast. "With this acquisition, we're looking forward to increasing  
our presence in Europe and building upon the solid relationships Stratigens has made in the  
talent intelligence space.”

Lightcast will be attending the Global Talent Intelligence Conference in September. Those  
attending can join Ettridge's Main Stage 2 session at 12pm CEST on Tuesday, Sept. 24.
