Ab Ovo
We are passionate about supply chain and logistics. Since 1997, we have had a deep connection with the industry. That is how we have attracted top talent from operations research and mathematics institutions and seasoned domain experts from leading companies. Our small and well-equipped teams are empowered with the autonomy to make proactive and informed decisions that put the customer first. Ab Ovo values the passion and dedication of our highly skilled employees. We strive to continuously foster innovative, strategic, and solution-oriented thinking.
As leaders in mathematical optimization, we recognize the growing significance of artificial intelligence (AI). Moreover, it adds immense value in a world of increasing complexity, uncertainty, and change. We understand the importance of combining analytical proficiency and in-depth domain expertise to successfully unlock the potential of AI.
We are committed to supporting our customers to become continuously more efficient and sustainable. Smart digitization enables better strategic, tactical and operational decisions by connecting the silos. Furthermore, we add tremendous value to our customers by leveraging artificial intelligence.
