Toronto, ON (January 18, 2022) – EQ Inc. (TSXV: EQ) (“EQ Works” or “EQ”), a leader in geospatial data and artificial intelligence driven software, is pleased to announce that it has joined the AI (Artificial Intelligence) Affiliate Network, run by the AI Partnership Corporation (AIP).  The global Affiliate Network joins together over 100 innovative organizations, from all sectors, who bring AI solutions to mid-large size enterprises looking to gain competitive advantages in the market.  The inclusion of EQ in this network further solidifies its strength and leadership in the AI space as it expands its offerings to the insurance, automotive and retail verticals.

“We are thrilled to join the AIP network as it allows us to go deeper with our existing verticals and then expand our AI footprint into other sectors and markets.” Says Mark Ditkofsky, EVP of Data Platforms and Strategy, EQ Works. “The access that this network provides will mean that we can continue to grow in our own specialties, while leveraging other organizations to offer greater value to our customers.”

“It is a privilege for AIP to expand our Affiliate Network to include EQ Works” said Dr. Tom Corr, CEO of AI Partnerships Corp. “AIP has been fortunate to attract the best of the best in terms of Affiliate companies offering AI-based solutions, and EQ Works clearly is in that category when it comes to enabling businesses to understand, predict, and influence customer behaviour.”
