Movus and Streamwise D.I., founded in Brisbane and Melbourne, respectively, are inspiring business-to-business startups that offer innovative solutions to enterprises in the energy and natural resources sector.
Following Fall 2020’s SAP accelerator program that focused on COVID-19 recovery, FinTech, and spend management, this year’s B2B program managed by SAP.iO Foundry Singapore centers on driving innovation in the energy and natural resources industries in Australia and New Zealand (ANZ). Two Australian startups, Movus and Streamwise D.I. along with four revolutionary enterprises that specialise in predictive analytics, industrial assets management, workers’ safety, and wellness complete the cohort.
Damien Bueno, SAP ANZ President and Managing Director, expressed the software giant’s commitment to supporting its customers’ transformation and growth through programs like SAP.iO. He said:
“Partnering with some of Asia’s most innovative startups who are pioneering advancements across the energy, natural, and resources sectors enables us to do exactly that. This program will help our customers accelerate innovation by tapping into the expertise of cutting-edge startups from across the region, including two Aussie success stories: Streamwise and Movus.”
