Overview
Acxiom is a global leader in customer intelligence, specializing in data orchestration, identity resolution, and AI-powered marketing solutions that enable organizations to unify customer data and activate it across channels. Founded in 1969 as Demographics Inc. by Charles D. Ward in Conway, Arkansas, the company has grown into a major data and technology firm with approximately 4,000 employees across 6 continents.
In 2018, Acxiom Corporation underwent a strategic restructuring: the Acxiom Marketing Services division was sold to the Interpublic Group of Companies (IPG) for USD 2.3 billion, while the remaining data business became LiveRamp. The Acxiom brand continued as a wholly-owned IPG subsidiary focused on customer intelligence and data management, with offices in Conway (AR), New York, London, Frankfurt, Gdansk, and Shanghai.
For the insurance industry, Acxiom provides data enrichment, identity resolution, and real-time personalization solutions to carriers across P&C, L&A, and Health. The company claims one-third of the largest auto finance, credit card, and insurance providers in the United States rely on its solutions. A notable example is Mutual of Omaha, which partnered with Acxiom in 2024 to build a custom Customer Intelligence Solution enabling personalized omnichannel marketing campaigns.
