Leading B2B automation solutions company taps experienced SaaS executive to drive next phase of growth

Conexiom, the leading provider of sales order and invoice automation solutions, announces the appointment of Ray Grady as President and CEO. Following a record year for Conexiom, Grady will focus on leading the company into its next phase of growth.
