DALLAS, TEXAS, USA, May 17, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ — Cien.ai, a leading Go-To-Market AI Analytics platform, appoints Joanna Ridgway, as Senior Vice President of Global Sales and Steve Valenta, as Senior Vice President of Strategic Partnerships.

“We’re extremely pleased to welcome Joanna and Steve to our leadership team,” said Cien.ai co-founder Margot Carter, who was recently recognized as a top 75 AI Innovator by Dallas Innovates. “The thriving Texas business community is driven by innovation. By adding these two key leaders, we will expand our reach and help companies leverage AI to achieve significant productivity gains.”

An experienced financial executive, Ms. Ridgway will lead the Cien.ai global sales team and foster client relationships in management consulting, private equity, and financial services. Most recently, she led the Santander Bank, N.A., regional corporate banking team. She has nearly 20 years of combined expertise at JPMorgan, Bank of America, Fifth Third, and in private equity.

Mr. Valenta will lead the company’s strategic partnerships and other business development efforts, establishing new and strengthening existing relationships with cloud and AI companies like Salesforce.com and Microsoft Azure.

Prior to that position, he was Senior Managing Director at NASDAQ and has also held positions at EY & Arthur Anderson. He is a graduate of SMU Cox School of Business.

New Proof of Value Program Launches

The timing of these new appointments aligns with Cien.ai’s launch of a turnkey “Proof Of Value” (POV) offering of their GTM Suite, which uses AI analysis to transform Go-to-Market teams. Some of its unique capabilities include the ability to identify and quantify revenue growth friction points in just a few days, without complex rollouts, and even when a client has less-than-perfect CRM data.

“Everyone has concerns about their data quality,” said Ms. Ridgway. “Cien.ai’s ability to address data quality issues automatically to deliver insights that help drive optimal outcomes is a game changer for companies.”

The launch of its new POV program adds significant value to its robust GTM Suite. “Cien.ai’s composable cloud architecture lets our partners and clients control exactly where and how data is stored and processed, allowing us to work with them in new and highly secure ways,” said Mr. Valenta. “The product’s ability to identify over $10M in actionable growth opportunities for a mid-market company makes our new POV offering extremely attractive for private equity and management consultants to white label, especially given their current focus on cost-effective growth.”
