At UiPath, Gupta will oversee a team of experts who will work closely with UiPath customers to maximise the adoption, self-sufficiency and business value of their RPA software investments through proven deployment methodology and strategic change management.
“RPA is a game-changer for business operations and cost productivity,” said Gupta. “I’ve experienced the value of this software firsthand, and the potential for enterprise automation is only going to increase as the technology advances and matures. UiPath is at the forefront of this monumental change and I could not be more excited to lead our customers through their digital transformation journeys.”
