Event Synopsis

AI is a big buzzword but what are the real-world applications for CPG businesses?

In this thought-provoking and informative session, we will cover a brief history of the recent advancements in artificial intelligence as it applies to business and look at how businesses are maturing in their use of AI

CPG businesses are at a crossroads and we will discuss how AI can help. Uncertainty is everywhere, you can’t predict the future so the next best thing is building the resilience and agility to lean in

We will also cover some real world examples of how to use AI to optimise supply chains, manage inventory and reduce costs. Supply chains can be stronger, more resilient, and smarter by connecting different data sources together and using them to make decisions.

Founded in Manchester and Jaipur in 2015 by Richard Potter, David Leitch and Atul Sharma, Peak is on a mission to change the way the world works.

A pioneer of the Decision Intelligence category, its platform allows businesses to apply AI to commercial decision making. The platform has three core products – Dock, Factory and Work – and can be used by both technical and commercial teams. It features a number of read-to-go applications that fit a variety of use cases across sectors including CPG, Retail and Manufacturing. These apps allow users to rapidly apply AI to deliver on commercial objectives, while giving them the tools they need to extend their use of Decision Intelligence over time. It is used by leading brands including Nike, ASOS, PepsiCo, KFC and Sika.

The company has grown significantly over the last three years and, in August 2021, Peak announced a $75m Series C funding round led by SoftBank’s Vision Fund II. The same year, it received a Best Companies 3-star accreditation, which recognizes extraordinary levels of employee engagement and was ranked by The Sunday Times as one of the Best 100 Companies to Work For in 2020 and again by Best Companies in 2021.

 

Lauren Fox will lead the Q&A for the evening. Lauren joined Peak in 2021 to lead the CPG Sales team for EMEA.

Lauren has over 10 years experience in FMCG, successfully launching one of the first visual analytics/Bi tools to market in 2016 (SKUtrak) which was adopted by over 1,600 customers. Lauren has worked with leading global brands, and major grocery retailers Coop and Morrisons, to improve their supplier and retailer collaborations through better use of trading data across supply chain and commercial teams.
