“Harnessing the world’s process data and putting it to work for customers is arguably one of the biggest challenges — and opportunities of our generation,” said Bardin. “The Celonis execution management vision, potential and commitment reminds me of my first few years at Google – when our mission was to change the way the world works by organizing and making all the world’s information universally accessible and useful. I’m excited to help organizations use the Celonis platform to get real-time visibility into how their business actually operates at the process level, identify actionable insights and ultimately take action to improve efficiency.”
