Business Development Manager, Europe

Bold Metrics Inc. (BMI) has created a suite of AI technologies that allows brands to accurately determine customer body measurements and relate them to garment specifications. Using our cutting-edge machine learning algorithms, retailers and brands are ditching conventional sizing solutions and leveraging our technology to reduce returns and increase conversions.

Ultimately, our goal is to revolutionize the apparel industry by leveraging this data to unlock body-relative apparel design. Historically, apparel sizes have been developed without customer-driven body data. This has led to a worldwide apparel waste problem, driven by high return rates coupled with poor consumer experiences with fit and sizing, often amplified online. Along with garment sizing optimizations, the downstream experience becomes more customer-driven, leading to a significant reduction in returns and happier customers.

We are a venture-backed, well-funded company and work with some of the world's largest brands, retailers, and clothing manufacturers in the world.
