About Zeotap
Founded in Berlin in 2014, Zeotap started with a mission to provide high-quality data to marketers. As we evolved, we recognized a greater challenge: helping brands create personalized, multi-channel experiences in a world that demands strict data privacy and compliance. This drive led to the launch of Zeotap’s Customer Data Platform (CDP) in 2020—a powerful, AI-native SaaS suite built on Google Cloud that empowers brands to unlock and activate customer data securely.
Today, Zeotap is trusted by some of the world’s most innovative brands, including Virgin Media O2, Amazon, and Audi, to create engaging, data-driven customer experiences that drive better business outcomes across marketing, sales, and service. With an unique background in high-quality data solutions, Zeotap is a leader in the European CDP market, empowering enterprises with a secure, privacy-first solution to harness the full potential of their customer data.
