NXTDRIVE™ Powered by Snowflake, data products debut in Snowflake Marketplace

SAN ANTONIO, February 6, 2024: Vericast has engaged Snowflake, the Data Cloud Company, to help marketers reach consumers through breakthrough technology innovations and proprietary data available in Snowflake Marketplace.

Vericast innovations and data products, including the NXTDRIVE customer data marketing platform, help marketers execute their strategic visions and engage customers in meaningful, privacy safe ways. Vericast’s combined alignment with Snowflake and Qonsent, zero-party consent enablement vendor, strengthens its data privacy position and simplifies the company’s ability to onboard and manage a client’s first-party data, which is collected and managed to be consistent with the consumer’s privacy preferences.
