ABOUT
In 2017, Mercedes-Benz SA launched an Innovation Challenge in search for South African tech startups which were great at applying machine learning within the manufacturing sector. The challenge called on local tech startups to present their solutions and DataProphet was chosen as the overall winner.
According to Isaac Matsa, Sales Executive at DataProphet, this would not have been possible without the support from LaunchLab and its programme. He said: “The programme played a critical role in connecting us as a solution provider to Mercedes-Benz SA.”
This year, Mercedes-Benz SA is looking for young talent interested in digital innovation. If you have a genius business idea, you could stand the chance to validate it with Mercedes-Benz SA. If you don't have a business idea right now, don't worry you can get into the fast track for a Graduate Development Programme position within the East-London plant by expressing interest here.
To further understand some of their innovations and engage with Mercedes-Benz SA, we will be hosting free events in Pretoria and Cape Town. The event is an opportunity for all future data scientists and digital innovators to take a deep dive into some of the innovation projects at the award-winning car manufacturer.
Come and learn how Mercedes-Benz SA engages with AI startups and how you can shape your career path to work with the Top Employer of the year.
