We’re thrilled to share some incredible news: Together is now part of the Absorb family! This acquisition represents a major step forward in Together’s mission: to help every employee find and learn from peers, mentors, or experts at their company.
At Together, we’ve always believed in the transformative power of mentoring, enabling personal and professional growth across organizations. Joining forces with Absorb allows us to scale this impact, seamlessly integrating mentorship into a broader strategic learning system that benefits learners and organizations alike.
“Together and Absorb share a common vision: enabling people and organizations to thrive through continuous learning,” said Matthew Reeves, CEO of Together. “This partnership brings mentorship and learning closer together, creating opportunities for deeper engagement and impactful growth for our customers and their employees.”
Why we’re excited
Mentorship has always been a critical component of employee engagement and development, but it’s often siloed from broader learning initiatives – until now. With Together joining Absorb, we’ll be introducing the first solution that will seamlessly integrate mentorship into an AI-powered LMS.
“Mentorship software and LMS platforms have traditionally operated as separate tools, even though enterprise L&D teams rely on both to create impactful learning experiences,” said Nathan Goldstein, Together’s Head of Product & Engineering. “This partnership bridges that gap, bringing Together’s proven mentorship capabilities and Absorb’s industry-leading learning system into a unified solution. By integrating these tools, we’re creating a seamless experience for L&D teams, enabling them to drive even greater impact through their learning initiatives”
Together’s platform has helped organizations worldwide build scalable mentorship and employee connection programs. Now, with Absorb, we’ll be able to deliver these benefits as part of a unified learning ecosystem.
“This transformative acquisition positions us as the first learning technology provider to integrate mentoring into its product ecosystem, advancing our vision of Strategic Learning Systems (SLS) and laying the foundation for a unified approach to learning.” Said Kimberly Williams, Absorb’s CEO. “Most importantly, it will empower our customers to create deeper learning experiences, engage and inspire their learners, and drive meaningful productivity gains and measurable business impact. We’re confident that this unified approach to learning will elevate individual growth and boost key HR and L&D metrics, delivering a true culture of learning.”
