Kalido Awarded as Technology Pioneer by World Economic Forum - Seite 2

Sanjay Varma, co-CEO of Kalido said, "Too often, arguments around income inequality rest on the assumption that it's a zero-sum game for the haves and have-nots, with AI, villainously, exacerbating the divide.  Kalido's technology and business model are built on the core philosophy to democratise opportunity for everyone, everywhere - and this is when this seemingly zero-sum game changes into a win-win for everyone.  Kalido powers enterprise productivity and community prosperity by matching individuals to opportunities that play to their strengths and aspirations in a safe and trusted way.  At Kalido, AI is a force for good, unleashing hidden potential and serving as a professional growth compass for every user.  We are humbled, grateful and hugely encouraged by the World Economic Forum, selecting us as a Technology Pioneer.  It's an endorsement of Kalido's belief that we can use technology to collectively reimagine a path to prosperity for individuals, enterprises, communities and societies in an increasingly dynamic world."
