The Würzburg-based start-up brings in the Swede Mikael Söderberg from the e-scooter provider. Scoutbee had already expanded its management team in recent weeks.

The AI start-up Scoutbee has gained another top manager. Having already recruited Michael Lindqvist (previously Ada Health) and Sören Blom (previously Zalando and Finleap) as new Directors of Engineering in recent months, the company has now also introduced Mikael Söderberg as its new Chief Product & Technology Officer.

Söderberg was most recently Chief Technology Officer at e-scooter provider Voi. Prior to that, he worked as a consultant at LG and Antler, among others. "Primarily as a data-driven engineer, I have a real affinity for scoutbee as an application of AI," Söderberg said at his introduction: "The talented team has made remarkable progress over the past few years, has a loyal user core, and is establishing a global industry standard for B2B supply-demand matchmaking."

Scoutbee offers a Ki-based platform for capturing supplier data. Currently, the company uses it to support around 150 customers. Söderberg is expected to lead the product, technology and engineering teams in his new role. Scoutbee CEO Gregor Stuehler emphasized the high expectations he has for the new guy: "Mikael has a track record of developing groundbreaking and robust platforms to address some of the world's biggest challenges. Our course will undoubtedly improve under his product and engineering stewardship."
