Our History - A story about working smarter
In 2003, ePulse’s founder, Larry Krupp, was providing sustainability consulting services to a European chemical company and was dismayed to realize that a significant event had happened with this company several weeks before that he had not been aware of. Like many of us, despite the best intentions to stay up with the latest news on the web, he was just too busy to keep track of all the news developments affecting his clients and industries. He knew he had to do better and vowed to develop technology that would watch the web for him and automatically alert him to significant news impacting his clients.
Fast-forward a year: With the new technology invented and working, Larry was on his way to a client meeting when his cell phone buzzed with an automatic text message notifying him that his client had just sold a division. He walked into the meeting and mentioned this latest news, which his client was not even aware of yet.
ePulse has evolved substantially since then, but the objective of those early efforts is still at the core of our mission: to know that our technology is watching the web for our clients so they can rest assured they know of all the relevant information they need to know. Today, when someone asks our clients if they've heard about a recent development, they can respond not only "we heard about that" (often weeks ago), but often they are able to provide further insights about the issue, such as what companies are doing, what NGOs are saying, or how governments have responded.
