Atlanta, Georgia, 10 September 2025
Dataviva, the creator of the world’s only real-time planning and execution platform with built-in artificial intelligence, and Veltio, a leading retail planning and optimization consultancy, today announced a definitive agreement to merge. The combined organization will operate under the Dataviva brand, with Veltio transforming into Dataviva Professional Services.
Transforming How Retailers Plan and Execute
The merger unites Dataviva’s live, AI-powered platform, which unites planning and execution processes while eliminating batch cycles and outdated data handoffs, and Veltio’s two decades of consulting excellence in demand forecasting, assortment planning, and supply-chain planning and optimization.
This powerful combination delivers a single partner for the full planning project lifecycle: strategy, technology, deployment, change management, and continuous improvement.
The merger is expected to close in Q4 2025, subject to customary approvals. Existing contracts and service commitments remain intact, and clients will experience no interruption in support.
