Research from SAP SuccessFactors reveals that deskless workers (workers who complete their work away from a desk and lack consistent access to technology or internal system) face unique challenges across the employee lifecycle, such as outdated hiring processes, inadequate rewards, and a lack of opportunities for meaningful development beyond ongoing required training. Deskless workers – and the managers and HR teams that support them – often lack fit-for-purpose technologies to solve their most pressing issues.

A jury of SAP SuccessFactors solution experts hand-picked the ten startups for the virtual program, choosing those whose solutions address the personas’ unique challenges as specified in the research.

Throughout the project, retrain.ai and the other chosen partners will be guided and supported by SAP executives, receive exposure to SAP® technology and application programming interfaces (APIs), and have opportunities to collaborate with SAP customers around the world, with the ultimate goal of combining expertise and innovation to create a better employee experience, no matter where deskless workers are located.
