Zudu was founded in Dundee in 2014 and serves clients including the NHS, Asahi, Weir, Wood, ScotRail, Portman Asset Management, and the Scottish Government.
“While we consider ourselves sector agnostic, we’re also doubling down on sectors where AI enablement and modern software delivery can unlock measurable competitive advantage. We’re now firmly on track to be a £10 million plus revenue business with strong pillar clients, deep sector partnerships, while demonstrating digital transformation outcomes for clients across multiple industries,” said Duffy.
“Paul brings a strong commercial and leadership track record, has scaled teams rapidly, strengthening operational structure and shaping board-level strategy in high-growth environments,” Buchan stated.
Duffy also commented on artificial intelligence adoption among businesses.
“What we’re seeing out on the coalface is that the big question for most business leaders is not whether they are adopting enough AI, what’s most important is having the right operational foundations in place. Do companies have the delivery capability to close the gap between what the technology can do, and what the business currently allows it to do,” said Duffy.
Zudu has partnered with recruitment agency Eden Scott as it seeks to hire a Head of Engineering and Head of Commercial.
The company is forecasting £5 million in revenue in 2026 and more than £10 million by 2028.
