Ibex Ltd (NASDAQ: IBEX) is a business process outsourcing (BPO) company that delivers customer engagement, customer acquisition, and customer experience technology solutions to clients across multiple industries. Revenue comes from service contracts under which Ibex operates agent-staffed delivery centers and provides technology-enabled CX platforms on behalf of client brands. The company serves two client categories: "digital-first" companies such as Amazon and a major U.S. ride-sharing platform, and large Fortune 500 brands in mature industries spanning Retail and E-commerce, HealthTech, Telecommunications, FinTech, Travel, Transportation and Logistics, and Technology verticals. As of June 30, 2025, Ibex operated 30 customer engagement delivery centers and employed approximately 33,000 people, with 97% of total on-site capacity in offshore and nearshore geographies. The proprietary Wave iX platform integrates generative AI across agent assistance, analytics, and customer acquisition workflows. Ibex uses a "land and expand" sales strategy, beginning with a single solution or geography and growing into multiple business lines per client.
