De Global Partnership Agreement stelt bepaalde portfoliobedrijven van Prosus, waaronder iFood, OLX, PayU, Despegar, eMag en Just Eat Takeaway.com, in staat om de geavanceerde cloud-infrastructuur en AI-mogelijkheden van AWS te benutten om hypergepersonaliseerde ervaringen wereldwijd aan klanten te leveren.

Prosus is bezig met het standaardiseren van AI-gedreven innovatie in zijn hele ecosysteem en bouwt voort op het succes van het baanbrekende Large Commerce Model (LCM) van iFood. Het LCM is een agentisch AI-systeem dat hypergepersonaliseerde zoekresultaten en aanbevelingen mogelijk maakt voor het toonaangevende bezorgplatform van Brazilië, dat maandelijks 180 miljoen bestellingen verwerkt. Het LCM transformeert de klantervaring door een langetermijngeheugen dat leert van resultaten en de intentie van de consument begrijpt, waardoor het bij elke interactie beter wordt.

“Dankzij onze eerdere samenwerking met AWS hebben iFood en andere bedrijven in het portfolio van Prosus bewezen AI-innovaties zoals het Large Commerce Model kunnen opschalen, waardoor de manier waarop klanten e-commerce ervaren volledig is veranderd”, aldus Igor Cardoso, hoofd van Prosus Ecosystem.

“Deze nieuwe samenwerking gaat verder dan alleen commerciële voorwaarden, AWS zet engineeringmiddelen in om samen met ons producten te ontwikkelen en biedt toegang tot en ondersteuning voor al onze portfolio-bedrijven om use cases snel te kunnen implementeren. Dankzij tien jaar gezamenlijke innovatie kunnen we de groei van onze wereldwijde portefeuille versnellen en een AI-first wereld ontsluiten voor onze 2 miljard klanten.”

Prosus selects AWS to power AI-driven ecommerce innovation

New collaboration will accelerate AI transformation with cloud infrastructure investment and joint innovation

4 February 2026 – Prosus, a global technology company, today announced a comprehensive three-year agreement with Amazon Web Services (AWS) to scale AI applications across its technology ecosystems in Latin America, Europe and India.

The Global Partnership Agreement will empower certain Prosus portfolio companies – including iFood, OLX, PayU, Despegar, eMag, and Just Eat Takeaway.com – to leverage AWS’s advanced cloud infrastructure and AI capabilities to deliver hyper-personalised experiences to customers globally.

Transforming ecommerce with AI innovation

Prosus is standardising AI-driven innovation across its entire ecosystem, building on the success of iFood’s groundbreaking Large Commerce Model (LCM). The LCM is an agentic AI system that enables hyper-personalised search and recommendation solutions for Brazil’s leading delivery platform, which processes 180 million monthly orders per month. The system transforms the customer experience through long-term memory that learns from outcomes and understands consumer intent, improving with every interaction.

Igor Cardoso, Head of Prosus Ecosystem, said: “Our past collaboration with AWS has enabled iFood and other Prosus portfolio companies to scale proven AI innovations like the Large Commerce Model, reshaping how customers experience ecommerce. Now, we’re deepening our partnership beyond commercial terms – AWS is committing engineering resources to co-develop products with us and provide portfolio-wide access and support to rapidly deploy use cases. Leveraging 10 years of shared innovation, this empowers us to accelerate growth across our global portfolio, unlocking an AI-first world for our 2 billion customers”.

The agreement focuses on five strategic pillars designed to scale operational excellence across the Prosus ecosystem:

• Leveraging cutting-edge Generative AI for product innovation, co-innovation and creations through AWS Programs
• Standardizing best practices to ensure system reliability and minimize service disruptions
• Implementing enterprise-grade security frameworks across all portfolio companies
• Optimising cloud spending through FinOps
• Creating unified technology templates for rapid deployment across all portfolio companies.

“Prosus demonstrates how commerce companies are leveraging AI to transform customer experiences,” said Greg Pearson, Vice President, AWS Global Sales. “By combining AWS’s AI and machine learning capabilities with Prosus’s operational expertise across its portfolio, we’re changing how customers experience and discover products.”
