“In the new world of hybrid work, the role of workplace services
has never been more critical in creating great employee
experiences,” said Blake McConnell, SVP of Employee Workflows at
ServiceNow. “With Mapwize, ServiceNow will power the future of

Safe Workplace Suite.

work, work better for everyone. With ServiceNow, we have the unique
opportunity to scale our technology to help global organizations
navigate hybrid work environments. Our technology, paired with the
Now Platform and Workplace Service Delivery Suite, will remove the
stress and time of navigating the workplace, allowing employees to
stay agile and efficient in any environment, on any device.”
Mapwize was founded in 2014 by CEO Médéric Morel and CTO Mathieu
Gerard and is based in Lille, France. ServiceNow expects to
complete the acquisition of Mapwize in Q3 2021. Financial terms of
the deal were not disclosed.
