In early 2011, idio acquired thru digital to expand its engineering team and set up a London office.[1][2]

History

idio was founded in 2006, by Edward Barrow and Andrew Davies, at Warwick Business School in the UK, with the aim of building a system to personalize content effectively. After several months, idiomag was launched.[3] This consumer-facing personalized music magazine was a proving ground for the technical and commercial approach of idio. Based on this, idio refocused on a business-to-business proposition, and started licensing the technology to brands and publishers; to aggregate social media content, deliver personalized multi-channel content services, and to monitor user interactions. idio has since refined this proposition and delivers a range of content and customer intelligence solutions.[4]
