🤔How robust are supply chains in this age of globalisation?🤔

Recent experience shows not nearly enough.

In the last year we've seen toilet roll stockpiling at the start of the pandemic🧻🧻🧻🧻...

Semiconductor shortages stopping smartphone or electric car production...

Evidence of Modern Slavery in the fashion industry supply chain...

A shortage of garden gnomes caused by the Suez Canal blockage (yes, really!)😄.

At Versed AI we're helping companies take action to address these issues with AI-powered supply chain visibility to multiple levels.👀

👩‍💻👨‍💻Our tech is cutting edge AI (NLP & ML) that surfaces previously-unknown supplier relationships.  Our customers use this insight to make better decisions and take meaningful action - improving their supply chain's resilience, environmental and ethical performance.🤝🌳🔗

🧠Spun out from our CTO's academic research at Cambridge University and backed by Founders Factory, Innovate UK, the Royal Academy of Engineering and others, we're now looking for a Sales Development Representative to grow our sales pipeline and help us scale.🚀
