What it does: Provider of robotic process automation (RPA) technology for automating routine tasks within businesses
CEO Quote: "RPA is the most pervasive and frictionless path to delivering AI technologies across the enterprise, and is revolutionizing the way people work. With this additional capital, we are in a position to do far more than any other provider. We will not only continue to deliver the most advanced RPA to the market, but we will help bring AI to millions. Like the introduction of the PC, we see a world where every office employee will work alongside digital workers, amplifying human contributions. Today, employees must know how to use a PC and very soon employees will have to know how to build a bot."
