Sprinklr, the unified customer experience management (Unified-CXM) platform for modern enterprises, announced the appointment of Rory Read as President & Chief Executive Officer and a member of its Board of Directors, effective November 5, 2024. Mr. Read will succeed Ragy Thomas, who will transition from his Co-CEO role to Advisor to the CEO and work closely with Mr. Read while continuing to serve as Founder and Chairman of the Board. Trac Pham will transition from his Co-CEO and Board of Directors roles at Sprinklr to an advisory role.
Mr. Read brings decades of global technology industry leadership from brands such as Vonage, Dell, Boomi, Virtustream, AMD, IBM, and Lenovo, including leading the historic integration of Dell and EMC that created Dell Technologies, which became the world’s largest privately controlled technology company at that time. He joins Sprinklr from Vonage, where he was Chief Executive Officer and President from 2020 to 2024, which was acquired by Ericsson in July of 2022 for $6.2B.
“Rory is an exceptional leader with proven expertise in driving transformational change and sustainable growth within the tech and SaaS industry,” said Sprinklr Founder, Advisor to the CEO and Chairman of the Board, Ragy Thomas. “Over many months, Trac and I have worked in tight partnership to stabilize the business, rigorously assess our needs, and identify the right leader to advance Sprinklr’s mission and position us for scalable growth.
