How does Sprinklr's unified CXM platform uniquely enable global logistics players like Aramex to scale personalised, real-time customer support?

For global logistics players like Aramex, this means no more siloed systems — agents and AI bots alike operate from a unified console that handles everything from WhatsApp messages and social media queries to voice calls.

What are some of the most impactful features of Sprinklr Voice and Conversational AI for enterprise clients?
Sprinklr Voice is a cloud-based contact centre that, combined with our Conversational AI, offers smart, seamless customer engagement. For instance, our AI voice bots can carry out human-like, 24/7 conversations to answer common logistics queries — like 'Where is my order?'— without needing an agent.
What sets us apart is Sprinklr AI+, which uses generative AI (powered by OpenAI's GPT models) to build intelligent chatbots in days. These bots understand intent, ask clarifying questions, and retrieve data instantly. For live calls or chats, AI assists agents in real time—suggesting next steps or drafting responses.
Plus, features like real-time call transcription and sentiment analysis help supervisors intervene when needed, ensuring a higher level of service quality and agent productivity.
How is Sprinklr evolving its product roadmap to meet rising expectations in logistics and e-commerce, especially in the Middle East?
Today's customers demand real-time updates, proactive communication, and hyper-personalisation, especially in logistics. That's why we're investing heavily in
We've also addressed data residency concerns by launching local data hosting in the UAE and Saudi Arabia, which is critical for enterprise adoption in this region.
Sprinklr is also embedding logistics-specific use cases directly into our platform. Our partnership with Aramex shows how breaking the wall between backend logistics and customer experience leads to stronger outcomes. It's where the industry is headed, and we're proud to be leading that charge.

Francoise Russo, CTO at Aramex
Aramex has automated 90 per cent of customer service cases and saved over a million agent hours. What impact has this had on customer satisfaction and delivery efficiency?
One key example is our Sprinklr WhatsApp BOT, which allows customers to schedule deliveries via a channel that's secure, familiar, and always available. This self-service option lets customers share precise location data and preferred delivery times—dramatically improving first-time delivery success and overall satisfaction.
Those million agent hours saved come from deflecting high-volume inquiries—like tracking requests—through AI. This frees up human agents to handle more complex issues with greater care.
With AI now central to operations, how does Aramex maintain a human touch in its customer service?
AI is here to complement, not replace, human agents. We use AI to summarise cases, suggest context-specific responses, and surface solution options so that agents are more informed and effective.
But we also recognise not every case is complex. For simpler queries, the AI bot handles the interaction end-to-end. If escalation is needed, the handover is seamless, ensuring the customer feels understood and valued throughout.
As e-commerce grows, what's next for Aramex in digital engagement and innovation?
We're expanding AI use to streamline multi-shipment handling within a single conversation, so customers don't need to repeat themselves. Another area of focus is onboarding new customers through conversational AI, helping them access Aramex services with zero friction.
We're also looking at enhancing predictive logistics—using AI to anticipate delays or issues and inform the customer proactively.
Our goal is to evolve from being a responsive service provider to a predictive and proactive logistics partner.

State Minister Calls for Rigor and Responsibility in Economic Discourse at Ethiopian Economics Association (EEA) Conference
State Minister of Finance, Dr. Eyob Tekalign, opened the 22nd International Conference on the Ethiopian Economy, organized by the Ethiopian Economics Association (EEA). In his keynote address, Dr. Eyob praised the EEA for its consistent contribution to policy-relevant research over more than two decades, highlighting the Association's role as a vital platform for evidence-based economic dialogue. In his opening speech the state minister conveyed a strong message on the importance of professionalism, analytical rigor, and responsible communication in shaping the nation's economic future. The State Minister also outlined the progress Ethiopia has made under its ongoing macroeconomic reform program, noting significant gains in inflation control, export performance, debt sustainability, and tax revenue mobilization. Beyond the macroeconomic achievements, Dr. Eyob shed light on a growing challenge in the public policy space: the need for clarity, integrity, and responsibility in economic analysis and communication. 'In recent months, we have witnessed how unclear communication or imprecise use of statistics, particularly around sensitive issues such as debt sustainability, can sow confusion and erode public confidence,' Dr. Eyob remarked. 'In today's fast-moving information environment, rigor and clarity are not optional—they are essential.' He emphasized the EEA's unique responsibility as a trusted and independent economic institution to uphold the highest standards of analysis and avoid sensationalism or politicized interpretations. Dr. Eyob underscored the Ministry of Finance's readiness to deepen collaboration with the EEA and other institutions that share a commitment to informed, evidence-based policymaking. The annual international Conference on the Ethiopian Economy brings together leading economists, academics, policymakers, and practitioners to deliberate on key economic developments and policy directions.
