Description (French)
Medidas a développé une technologie innovante qui utilise la ludification, l’agrégation et la visualisation de données pour aider à résoudre un problème sociétal majeur. Le projet proposé permettra de tester la suite de produits TrypScore, un modèle unique de marketing numérique géociblé et des processus de modification du comportement des conducteurs dans le cadre de leur mission de réduction du nombre de décès dus aux collisions de véhicules. Les essais réussis prospecteront un modèle reproductible et évolutif qui pourra être étendu à un lancement complet sur les marchés, augmenteront l’évaluation de l’entreprise et construiront un récit convaincant pour une levée de fonds transformatrice afin d’alimenter une croissance accélérée et de soutenir la mission de l’entreprise.
