With this investment we are now able to access Digital Tribe’s leading suite of products and machine-learning technologies and can now build an expanded range of pioneering future-first solutions, giving our clients the edge in their markets.
Investment in forward-thinking CX solutions is paramount and our vision is very much shared by the team behind Digital Tribe. We’re proud to be working with a local business and further cementing our growing presence in South Africa following the recent opening of our new Cape Town operation”.
Digital Tribe specialises in the delivery of fully integrated technologies offering digital, predictive and autonomous CX solutions.

“We’re proud to team up with such a well-established and respected customer outsourcing organisation. Ascensos is a world-class provider with a growing global footprint and many years of expertise in the CX arena.
This digital, multi-platform approach and hybrid model of human & autonomous customer contact is a huge focus for us and for the team at Ascensos, so I am certain that this partnership will allow us to flourish together”.
