Move underlines Datapred’s commitment to addressing sustainable procurement challenges.
PARIS – February 19, 2021 – Datapred, the smart control tower for raw material buyers, today announced that its Paris office will soon move to Maison RaiseLab, a new Open Innovation campus designed to spur collaboration between startups, scaleups, mid-sized companies and multinationals.
We are delighted to move to this exciting new place and benefit from the increased proximity with French industrial leaders,” said Nicolas Mahler, Director of Datapred. “We have been working with RAISE for three years now. The RAISE team have been invaluable growth partners, providing advice and opening doors. It is great to be part of the Maison RaiseLab adventure.”
Maison RaiseLab especially focuses on fostering multinational-startup collaborations addressing green supply chain challenges. Datapred, which is already helping clients optimize over €1.5 billion in energy and raw material spend across multiple categories (including metals, chemicals and power), is increasingly adding sustainable development objectives to the operational factors it helps buyers consider when making their purchasing decisions.
Paul Jeannest, co-founder and CEO of RaiseLab, commented:
We want to be the leading facilitator for 'David and Goliath' collaborations between large industrial groups and startups, with an ecosystem based on open innovation and a result-oriented culture. Datapred is already working with some of our industrial partners.”
