LONDON, UK – 26 March 2026 – Jam Pan, the multi-agency digital learning specialist, today announced it has been named a Strategic Challenger in the newly published Fosway 9-Grid™ for Digital Learning 2026, sitting within the same Zone as several large, established global learning platforms. The Fosway 9-Grid™ is Europe’s leading independent analysis of the learning and talent systems market, produced annually by Fosway Group, Europe’s #1 HR industry analyst.
Strategic Challenger status reflects high performance, high potential and a strong upward trajectory — based on Fosway’s ongoing engagement with the real buying decisions of its Corporate Research Network of over 250 of Europe’s leading enterprises.
The Fosway 9-Grid™ is the only European-centric, independent research of its kind, assessing every vendor against five critical dimensions.
Jam Pan appears in the STRATEGIC CHALLENGER zone — high performance and high potential — alongside established names in digital learning.
Jam Pan’s multi-agency model brings together specialist teams — spanning learning strategy, on-demand L&D talent, technology implementation and creative production — under a single, senior point of accountability for clients. The company has delivered more than 190 enterprise learning projects, drawing on over 50 years of combined platform expertise across its team, including deep implementation and optimisation experience on major learning platforms such as Cornerstone OnDemand and Degreed.
Being a Strategic Challenger isn’t about being the biggest name in the room. It’s about being smarter, sharper and more focused than the market expects. We don’t have a content library built over two decades or a venture-backed war chest behind us. What earned us this position is the ability to move fast, think strategically, and deliver outcomes that genuinely change how learning works inside organisations.Tom Pape, Managing Director, Jam Pan
“At scale, platforms can become rigid — selling seats rather than solutions, with standard implementations built for the median customer,” Pape continued. “We exist in the gap between what a platform can do out of the box and what an enterprise actually needs to happen. Every client relationship at Jam Pan is a senior relationship, and when something needs to change quickly, it changes quickly. That responsiveness is hard to manufacture at scale.”
Fosway’s 2026 research highlights a learning market at an inflection point: economic uncertainty is making buyers more selective, AI hype continues to outpace delivery, and large enterprises are increasingly re-examining long-standing vendor relationships. Jam Pan’s Strategic Challenger status was achieved against this backdrop, reflecting Fosway’s assessment that the company is showing up in real strategic buying conversations across Europe and delivering results that hold up under scrutiny.
