DigitalThink was an electronic learning (eLearning) enterprise solutions company that strove to address the entire range of a corporation’s training and education needs. Founded in 1996 by Umberto Milletti, Pete Goettner and Steve Zahm [1]

At the time it was termed a Business Solution Provider (BSP) but would likely be viewed in modern terms as a software-as-a-service (SaaS) model.

DigitalThink was one of the first eLearning companies to incorporate online mentors and tutors into their offering. [2]

DigitalThink’s customers included Circuit City, Cisco, Mitsubishi Caterpillar Forklift of America, KPMG Consulting, American Honda, Charles Schwab Corporation, DaimlerChrysler, Deutsche Bank, EDS, The Gallup Organization, GE Capital, McDonald's, Northwest Airlines, Adobe Systems, Informix, Merrill Lynch, Motorola, Raytheon, Silicon Graphics, Texas Instruments, US WEST and Walgreens. [3]

The company was acquired in March 2004 by Convergys for $120 million, or approximately $2.40 per share. [4]
