ArtesFAST is a new AI-driven platform, matching engineers and businesses for technical tasks in the high-tech industry. The dream of founders Anand Ramachandran and Clemens van den Berghe is to enable equal opportunities and professional freedom for engineers of all disciplines worldwide. No more frustrations, corporate limitations or ‘bore-outs’, but working on what you’re good at, when you want and with whom you work well with. With ArtesFAST they cracked the code and turned this dream into a reality. ArtesFAST eliminates the causes that create inequality and exclusion. To start with, it doesn’t use CVs or asks about an expert’s gender or other bias variables. But it also ensures a perfect match between the expert and the business environment they’ll be working in to deliver the results. Companies working with ArtesFAST are able to find the right expert with that specific unique skill-set in a couple of minutes. No need to spend hours going through tons of expert profiles or worrying that confidential information about the task is being seen by the wrong people. ArtesFAST understands the expertise and skills that are needed and based on timing and budget offers a shortlist of available experts who are the perfect match. Anand and Clemens will share why they’re so passionate about shaping the future of work. And how their combined extensive experience – both as entrepreneurs and working for global corporates – has led them to their new mission: enabling others to achieve fulfillment in their profession.
