RETAIL THOUGHT-LEADER, THE LEAD, NAMES SHOPIN MOONSHOT OF THE YEAR 2019.

Hot on the heels of stealing the limelight at GDS Summit, Shopin is awarded “Moonshot of the year” in The Lead’s authoritative “The Leading 100.”


Brooklyn, New York, May 23, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --

Shopin continues to make strides across the world of retail post the recent release of R.I.D.E. (the Retail Intelligence Data Engine- a patent-protected “Bloomberg Terminal” for retail, powered by over 3.5BN purchase data transactions, 30MM SKU cooccurrences, 6.4MM products and tracking 71,000 fashion brands).

Recently the team returned triumphant from GDS Summit with several of Fortune 100 retailers ranking Shopin either 9 or 10 out of 10 for R.I.D.E. and the vision of a universal shopper profile for retail powered by proprietary visual artificial intelligence, NLP and decentralization technologies.

Today, The Lead, a highly regarded retail research firm, announced The Leading 100 list of break-out tech startups innovating across the fashion and retail industry in collaboration with renowned The Robin Report. Amongst the prestigious honorees, Shopin was listed as “Moonshot of the Year 2019”.

Noah Gellman, CEO and founder of The Lead, elaborates: “Moonshot of The Year is reserved for the early stage company that we believe will be the highest growth company with the most impact across the industry.”

Eran Eyal, CEO and founder of Shopin, confides “We are absolutely blown away. At Shopin, our goal is to ensure that timeless brands stay timeless. We have looked to the rich tapestry and legacy of retail for guidance, and to the innovative leaders of ecomm for inspiration to scale in order to bring these worlds into harmony in a retail renaissance. Ultimately, we are a small and humble team, dedicated to working tirelessly and are unreasonably relentless to achieve these goals... but it is impossible without the support and guidance of people like The Lead, The Robin Report and the industry to help cocreate this vision.”
