Enterprise Technology Show Featuring Workato

Workato, founded in 2013, is the leader in enterprise automation, which helps organisations to integrate their apps and automate complex business workflows with security and governance.

Recently, the company raised US$200 million in Series E funding led by Battery Ventures, at US$5.7 billion valuation. The investment comes at a time when Workato and the automation market as a whole are experiencing tremendous development, as businesses recognise the urgent need to improve their agility, innovation, and efficiency in the face of transformation and change.

The pandemic has heightened the requirement for business excellence, prompting organisations to automate fundamental procedures and seek out low-code tools that enable staff to work fast and independently.

Vijay says businesses are still struggling to achieve true transformation because robotic automation process (RPA) and integration tools cannot scale to address the needs of enterprises today.
