Why we invested

Why Nosto,
and why then.

Personalisation in ecommerce is a decade-old promise that only works when it's plumbed deeply into the storefront. Stackla built the user-generated-content engine that became the version merchandising teams actually used.

We backed Stackla from the ANZ side of the cap table. Stackla was acquired by Nosto in 2021 and Rampersand received Nosto shares via the acquisition.
