Nike has announced that it is opening a new major hub in Atlanta that it is referring to as the 'Technology Center.' The lifestyle brand will use the Technology Center to handle three major technology-focused ventures. Firstly, the company will bolster its cybersecurity. Nike will hire a team to staff a cybersecurity command center, which is necessary as the world becomes more online and digital security breaches become more commonplace.
Secondly, Nike will research potential use cases for artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning models at this center. Nike seeks to improve its consumer services through the use of AI models. Lastly, the Technology Center will handle digital supply chain solutions. This means the hub will optimize costs, sustainable practices, online services, and other digital aspects of the brand's supply chain.
