Stacksync and FIT: Our Story
In the early days of Stacksync, when we were just getting started with our vision of real-time, two-way data sync between CRMs like Salesforce and NetSuite and databases, Fondation FIT believed in us.
In early 2023, FIT awarded Stacksync a CHF 20,000 Digital Grant to support our product launch and early development. Their support wasn't just financial—it was a vote of confidence in what we were building.
Today, Stacksync serves companies worldwide, helping them eliminate batch jobs, sync data in real-time, and build better data infrastructure.
We're proud to be part of FIT's portfolio alongside some of the most innovative companies in Switzerland.
