“To maximize business value at pace and scale, our vision was to enable fast creation and horizontal/vertical scaling of use cases in an automated, standardized manner. To do this, 18 months ago, we set out to build a next-generation AI/ML platform based on new Google technology, some of which hadn’t even been announced yet. We knew it wouldn’t be easy. People said ‘shoot for the stars and you might get off the ground’. Today, we’re proud that AI Booster is truly taking off, and went live in almost double the markets we had originally planned,” says Cornelia Schaurecker, global group director, of big data and AI at Vodafone.
The strategic partnership between the two companies is for six years.
