Poppulo
Poppulo is a global AI-powered employee experience and enterprise digital signage platform vendor, formed from the 2021 merger of Four Winds Interactive and the original Poppulo (founded 1996 as Newsweaver in Cork, Ireland), and backed by Vista Equity Partners. The company serves over 10,000 organisations — including 40+ of the Fortune 100 — across more than 80 countries, with a digital signage network spanning 600,000+ screens and employee communications reaching 50 million+ workers. Its May 2026 acquisition of Sociabble further cements its position as a full-stack employee experience vendor combining enterprise digital signage, multichannel communications, social intranet, and frontline engagement.
