AiThority Interview with Malina Platon, Managing Director at UiPath

I have years of experience in the enterprise software space, starting in my early years as a Customer Representative for WebHelp before expanding into market development for Intel which saw me take on a more Business Development role. My roles in companies such as Intel, Softwin and ABC Data were very Business Development-orientated which meant that I had to become an expert in the technology and in understanding how that technology could solve the problems that my customers faced. It also meant that I had to build and maintain relationships, skills that have served me very well in my recent role at UiPath. Throughout my career I saw how good quality enterprise technologies can really help drive a company's competitiveness and productivity, so UiPath was a natural fit for me when I joined them in 2016. I have helped drive UiPath's expansion into ASEAN, from setting up offices in Thailand, Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, the Philippines, and South Korea, to hiring staff and providing strategic oversight of operations.
