DataRobot,
the leader in automated machine learning, today announced the addition
of Hilarie Koplow-McAdams, Venture Partner at New Enterprise Associates
(NEA), to its Board of Directors. Koplow-McAdams brings an extensive
background in supporting high-growth enterprise software companies and
joins DataRobot’s seven other board members as they work to accomplish
the organization’s mission of expanding globally and vertically to
increase its service offerings.
Prior to joining NEA in 2017, Koplow-McAdams was Chief Revenue Officer
and then President at New Relic, a software analytics and real-time
insights startup. There, she was directly responsible for the company’s
growth and oversight of global sales, marketing, customer success,
support, and business development. Under her leadership, the company
achieved its IPO in December 2014 and raised $115 million as a result.
In addition to her experience scaling software startups, Koplow-McAdams
also holds decades’ worth of experience at established technology firms
like Salesforce, Intuit, and Oracle. Koplow-McAdams served as President
at Salesforce, where she oversaw the success of the company’s worldwide
sales teams and helped it achieve record-breaking revenue growth. She
began her career at Oracle, where she held a variety of strategic roles
over the course of 18 years, including Senior Vice President of Oracle
Direct. In that role, she drove the company’s rapid expansion in both
the technology and applications markets.
“As a leader at Salesforce.com, Hilarie helped bring the ‘Sales Cloud’
to the world,” said Jeremy Achin, DataRobot Co-Founder and CEO. “Now she
will help DataRobot bring the ‘AI Cloud’ to every industry, geography,
and business – from the smallest SMBs to the Fortune 10. Hilarie’s
operating experience and track record make her the ideal Board Director
for DataRobot, and I look forward to her guidance and mentorship.”
DataRobot has grown significantly since its founding in 2012. NEA
participated in the company’s $100 million Series
D in October 2018, bringing DataRobot’s total funding to $225
million. Most recently, the company appointed several new key executives
– including Igor
Taber to Senior Vice President of Corporate Development and
Strategy, Eric
Forseter to General Manager of Public Sector, and Colleen
Greene to General Manager of Healthcare – who will jointly
contribute to scaling the company and extending the reach of its
disruptive solution.
“Machine learning is undoubtedly one of the most coveted software tools
on the market today,” said Koplow-McAdams. “DataRobot’s unique approach
to automating machine learning is helping organizations enhance their
data science capabilities so they can glean optimal intelligence more
efficiently than ever before. I’m thrilled to be joining such an
innovative company and look forward to working with the rest of the
Board to support DataRobot’s continued growth.”
