Ukrainian Fozzy Group Accelerator. Which startups made it through the selection process?

Fozzy Group has wrapped up the second wave of its corporate accelerator, Fozzy Venture Studio, in which nine startups tested their solutions in the company’s real business processes, Fozzy Group reports.

This year, the team received 60 applications, of which 10 projects were selected for piloting, and eight successfully passed testing. Another startup continued its participation from the first intake.

Participants tested their technologies in Fozzy Group stores and services, received feedback from experts, and presented their results on Demo Day.

Among the startups that underwent pilot testing were:

• Ricky Food — an app for selling “secret sets” of products with a short shelf life;

• Sure — an AI assistant for automating customer communications;

• Deus Robotics — a robotic system for monitoring store shelves;

• Pricer24 — a service for monitoring prices and market positions;

• InBoxWine — a digital sommelier for personalizing wine selection;

• Eco-Service — taromats for collecting used bottles;

• AskFor — a mobile service for calling a salesperson via a QR code;

• Servus systems integration — a multi-acquiring system for optimizing cashless payments;

• Adminix — an AI solution for automating internal company processes.

 

Most startups will continue to cooperate with the holding’s businesses.

The AskFor service has been particularly successful and is preparing for commercial launch in 30 Silpo chain stores — this will be the first large-scale implementation of a solution from the accelerator.
