“The market is littered with firms who rushed to have any semblance of an AI story in place. This resulted in one-off, vertically-oriented approaches which have proven very difficult to leverage across multiple use cases and large data sets,” said Matt Stevens , CEO at Bamboo Rose. “Our hallmark is efficiency at scale. Bamboo Rose’s AI-powered Decision Intelligence leverages our customer’s data horizontally to unlock unprecedented gains in automation and effectiveness end-to-end, from planning, development, and buying all the way through global trade management.”
