Our clients are international corporations and the biggest Polish enterprises.

Our clients value our company because due to the competencies of the i360 team, we are the first choice in every area of activity. In particular, our clients value i360 because we can provide even the most complex IT solutions that require integration with external applications and data warehouses while maintaining full security guaranteed by the ISO 27001:2013 standard implemented at i360.

Our history and key facts
Reasons for starting a business in 2009
1. Goals
To fill a gap in the broadly defined market for sales support services and provide highly specialised software for managing B2B incentive programmes in the software as a service distribution model. To establish a first-choice enterprise for long-term cooperation with international corporations and the most prominent Polish companies concerning managing relationships with entities at different levels of the distribution chain.
2. Market situation
This business idea came from the fact that the company’s founders noticed a niche for software that could be used to manage B2B incentive programmes and enable trade marketing and sales departments to organise short-term and long-term commercial actions on their own. With time, it turned out that demand depends on the provision of additional services such as front-end services, the delivery and storage of prizes, software management, the creation of strategies, communication management and legal and tax counselling.
3. The founders’ experience
The new business was supported by the extensive professional experience of its founders, related to working in marketing departments of international corporations (Tomasz Makaruk, PhD) and running an enterprise (one of the biggest at that time) which provided marketing services (Instytut Marketingu i Komunikacji INMARK Mariusz Winkler Spółka komandytowa).
Why i360?
Clients choose i360 because they are looking for a reliable partner with experience in managing strategic projects coordinated by the management boards of international corporations and a competent counsellor who will proactively show them the right development directions and exceed the expectations of project leaders at the operational level.

What’s important, at i360, we follow the principle of owner supervision. The owners are involved in everyday operational work and are physically present at regular status meetings with Clients. Because of that, the decision-making process is quick, and the interest of clients is directly correlated with the interest of i360.
