About the company

Digital Pills is a consulting company specialized exclusively in data covering the full data value chain: data strategy data engineering analytics engineering BI and data science.
The company works across two main areas reducing customer acquisition costs and increasing customer lifetime value for clients ranging from large international brands (including HelloFresh Last Minute Dolce & Gabbana Arcaplanet) to non-profit organizations such as AIRC and Save the Children to which the company donates 1% of its annual revenue.
Despite being a company of around 30 people Digital Pills has recently started an international expansion with a hub in Berlin and is in the middle of a strategic transition: from bespoke consulting to a scalable model built on proprietary products and accelerators developed starting from projects with its most strategic clients.
