Finding meaningful professional connections
Accepted into the prestigious SAP Development Accelerator Program, EnterpriseJungle is a new startup that focuses on helping professionals connect in a more meaningful, relevant way.
This social discovery platform sits atop LinkedIn and reveals to you other professionals you should know in your organization, which is especially helpful for large corporations, and helps you find like people in like industries for small businesses as well.
The company asserts that regardless of your industry or role, “expanding your professional network to include people that you should already know increases opportunity and we believe EnterpriseJungle helps that.”
In what the company calls the largest survey on the needs of professionals, the highest ranked request was to gain access to out of network peers who have access to contacts or information that would be beneficial, inspiring their startup to facilitate just that.
Using EnterpriseJungle
Whether attempting to access team members working on similar projects, improve your B2B sales, get a leg up in networking for your next promotion, or even job hunting, the startup takes the legwork out of hunting and pecking on LinkedIn.
James Sinclair, Co-Founder of EnterpriseJungle tells AGBeat that the SMB market can generate value from the “like people from like companies” function given their own company is not as spread and large as the biggies.
“EJ has dual functionality,” Sinclair said. “Whilst it services large enterprises, it also benefits individuals and small businesses. The SMB market can generate value by signing up given their own company is likely local and small. EJ offers immediate access to a large, credible network accurately curated through intelligent algorithms to introduce them to ‘like people and like companies” – no matter where you work or the size of your organization the benefits of collaboration through expanding your network are undisputed.”
