Our take
As well as putting new pressure on enterprises to be agile in their procurement approach, the global supply chain crunch has also created fierce competition between disruptive tech startups in the space. Fortunately for German company Scoutbee, it’s already built a strong reputation since launching in 2015.
Scoutbee’s procurement platform is used by major companies across the automotive, agriculture, industrial and life sciences sector like Unilever, Siemens, Kärcher, Henkel, and Audi. The platform leverages supplier data at scale with AI to provide enterprises with a deeper, faster means of sourcing the materials they need from anywhere in the world.
Given the company’s robust reputation as well as the demand for more flexible procurement solutions, Scoutbee is growing quickly in both Europe and the US. With plenty of venture funding secured thus far, the company looks well set to continue its trajectory.
