About us

Pon Datalab


We are the Pon Datalab, a team of 18 data scientists, engineers and AI specialists on a mission to make Pon the smartest trading and service company in the world. How? By bridging the gap between business and data. On the one hand, we do this by solving challenges faced by Pon companies. We either deploy one of our existing solutions or co-create with the business to create a custom solution. On the other hand, we spend one day per week on innovation. On this day we experiment with new ideas and technologies, aiming to surprise the business with new solutions that might turn into stand-alone business models like Lensor.
