UiPath to Invest $20 Million to Accelerate RPA and AI Success for Partners in 2019Today at the #UiPath Partner Forward conference, UiPath made a $20 million commitment to support its partners in their efforts to accelerate the democratization of Robotic Process Automation (RPA) and deliver on the true benefits of AI in the enterprise. UiPath CEO and Co-founder Daniel Dines addressed approximately 500 partners from across the Americas and articulated the company's strategic imperatives to design automation that is easy-to-use, open and extensible, and which ultimately offers the best path to AI across customers' digital business operations. Dines also declared that partners are at the center of these imperatives and key to meeting and accelerating the skyrocketing demand for RPA and AI. UiPath's $20 million investment will go toward two partner-focused funds to support their success in 2019:
In addition, UiPath is launching Technology and Business Partner Programs for all partners globally. A new Partner Portal enables deal registration and provides access to marketing, sales and technical assets and tools to acceleate the RPA journey for partners and their customers.
