Board will help uncover automation needs in
public sector to accelerate the delivery of public services to
citizens
UiPath, Inc. (NYSE: PATH), a leading enterprise automation
software company, today announced the formation of its first Public
Sector Advisory Board. The Board, comprised of former government
technology officials, economists, and academia, will provide UiPath
with external perspectives on all facets of government, global
economic trends, and new opportunities for automation to help
public sector agencies meet their missions.
UiPath has deployed its automation platform in more than half of
U.S. states and 92 U.S. federal departments and agencies, and the
need for automation continues to grow. The U.S. federal government
plans to spend $65 billion on digital infrastructure over the next
eight years and in a recent NASCIO survey, 77% of state CIOs said
their interest in automation software is driven by the need to
improve the delivery of services to citizens. The Public Sector
Advisory Board’s insight and knowledge of the unique challenges of
government organizations, their specific missions, and legislative
and policy priorities will inform how UiPath continues to approach
this market segment and ultimately will lead to automation
solutions that can make governments more efficient and
effective.
The following 7 board members will meet regularly and serve a
minimum one-year term:
- Aneesh Chopra – former U.S. CTO (2009-2012), former
Secretary of Technology for the Commonwealth of Virginia
(2006-2009), President of CareJourney, and author
- Tyler Cowen – professor and economist at George Mason
University
- Suzette Kent – former CIO of the federal government and
CEO of Kent Advisory Services
- Gopal Khanna – former Director, Agency for Healthcare
Research and Quality, former CIO, State of Minnesota, and
Executive-in-Residence at the Medical Industry Leadership Institute
at University of Minnesota
- Matt Lira – former Special Assistant to the President
for Innovation Policy and Initiatives at the White House Office of
American Innovation
- Shelley Metzenbaum – former Associate Director of
Performance and Personnel Management at White House Office of
Management and Budget, launched Performance.gov, government policy
implementation expert and advocate
- John Zangardi – former CIO, Department of Homeland
Security, former Acting DoD CIO, former DON CIO and acquisition
executive, and current president of Redhorse Corporation
“The insights gained from this group of trusted advisors will be
instrumental for UiPath to continue to innovate for the specialized
needs of public sector agencies and their employees and
constituents through automation,” said Chris Townsend, Area Vice
President, Public Sector at UiPath. “Our Public Sector Advisory
Board members each bring an incredible wealth of experience and
knowledge that will help us continue to shape strong and meaningful
relationships within the public sector and solution development at
a time when government is rapidly turning to digital transformation
to modernize how it operates and serves the public.”
