CreateFuture has secured a technology partnership with Skyscanner, which will see the digital consultancy working closely with the global travel marketplace’s engineering teams across its Edinburgh, Glasgow, London and Barcelona offices.
The collaboration will span audience experience, data and AI tooling, and app experience. Euan Andrews, CEO and Founder of CreateFuture, said: “Skyscanner began life here in Scotland, and is now the leading global travel app that scans over 80 billion prices daily. We are excited to be working with their world-class engineering team to accelerate, grow, and contribute to their future success.”

Andrew Phillips, Chief Technology Officer at Skyscanner, added: “CreateFuture’s proven capabilities, culture match, and overall collaborative approach made them the ideal choice for us, and we fully expect their team to be instrumental in helping us to achieve our engineering goals.”
CreateFuture – which has offices in Edinburgh, Leeds, Manchester and London – was appointed following a multi-stage selection process involving national and international consultancies, recognised for its engineering expertise, cultural alignment, and delivery track record.
Skyscanner joins a client list that includes PayPal, adidas, NatWest, Baillie Gifford, MoneySavingExpert, Penguin Random House, Simple Online Healthcare, Multiverse and FanDuel.

Euan Andrews added: “As a Scotland-headquartered company, we think it’s notable that we’re now working with the country’s two tech unicorns – Skycanner and FanDuel – and that this says something about the continuing evolution of the Scottish technology ecosystem as a whole. And for our business, it not only strengthens our position at the forefront of digital transformation in Scotland, but helps to lay the ground for further expansion across the UK and internationally.”
Founded in 2010, CreateFuture employs around 500 people across three UK offices and a European base, delivering end-to-end digital transformation across CX strategy, product innovation, AI enablement, cloud and infrastructure, and data and analytics. The company rebranded from xDesign in 2023 following its acquisition of CreateFuture, and is backed by Soho Square Capital.
