Six months after opening its first international office in London, the Seattle-headquartered sales engagement unicorn extends its influence in Europe with a new engineering office

Outreach, the number one sales engagement platform, announced the opening of a new product development center in Prague, Czech Republic, which further extends its footprint in Europe. From its new office in one of Europe’s five growing tech hubs, Outreach will continue to modernize the European sales industry. The company is already the largest sales engagement company in Europe. The opening of the Prague office follows closely on Outreach closing a $50 million funding round and appointing Melissa Fisher as Chief Financial Officer earlier in June.

The opening of Outreach’s Prague office comes six months after Outreach opened its first international office in London. The local team will be led by Tomas Bergl, who is responsible for driving innovation for Outreach’s European operations. Bergl has more than 15 years of experience working on technical challenges and designing cutting-edge collaboration products and services during his time at Microsoft, Skype, and Opera. Bergl joins Outreach’s growing AI team including Abhi Abhishek and Eugene Ho, both Microsoft veterans with extensive experience in AI and communication platforms.

His insights and experience will be invaluable as Outreach looks to further expand its footprint in customer engagement.”

“I’m excited to join Outreach and help further develop the technology solutions that are creating and leading the sales engagement category,” said Bergl. “Our Prague-based team plays a crucial role in developing the next generation of artificial intelligence-driven solutions that will define the future of customer engagement. We have some of the best technical talent right here in Prague and I can’t wait to continue building our team.”
