SAP and Mercado Libre have signed a collaboration to accelerate the exploration of use cases that drive Gen AI.
The agreement means Mercado Libre will use the SAP Business Technology Platform (BTP) on top of the SAP solutions it already has in place as the preferred digital platform for its integration, extension and innovation plans.
In this way, Mercado Libre becomes a strategic partner in the concrete implementation of this emerging technology.
“We are very excited about this true co-innovation project, in which we take a step beyond the technology partner model to design a joint plan to explore how Gen AI can analyze our enormous volume of data and impact our innovation map,” said Alejandro Bonsignore, Finance & System Senior Manager, Mercado Libre and President of ASUG Argentina.
Among the options that are already being analyzed, some initiatives stand out to understand and anticipate financial scenarios, increase productivity in audit processes or improve the employee experience in areas such as career development and recruitment.
“Mercado Libre’s business is the perfect scenario for us to maximize the value of AI and thoroughly understand its impact on industries and take it to the next level,” said Matheus Souza, Chief Innovation Officer of SAP Latin America and the Caribbean. “It is an ad hoc job, in which the main value of what the technology provides will be linked to what the business asks for at all times.”
