Data-Powered Consumer Brands: Amperity’s Derek Slager

In this episode, we speak with Derek Slager, the Co-Founder and CTO of Amperity, a customer data platform that helps brands build the unified first-party customer data foundation they need to grow revenue, reduce costs, save time, and stay compliant.

Founded in 2016, Amperity’s main drive in business is to enable larger consumer brands such as Wyndham and Alaska Airlines, to develop and maintain a unified view of their customer, using patented AI and ML methods. Now with more than 400 brands on their roster, Amperity is a trusted resource for turning data into business value.

The company has raised over $180 million and is backed by HighSage Ventures, Tiger Global, Madrona, and others.

Prior to Amperity, Derek was on the founding team at Appature and held engineering leadership positions at various business and consumer-facing startups, focusing on large-scale distributed systems and security.
