Elementum names Phil Duggan as Chief Revenue Officer. Enterprise software veteran will lead Elementum's global revenue strategy as the company scales adoption of its AI-native platform. Elementum, the AI-native platform replacing legacy enterprise SaaS, announced it has named Phil Duggan as its Chief Revenue Officer. A seasoned enterprise software revenue leader, Duggan will run Elementum's global sales and revenue organization and lead the company's next phase of growth as demand for AI-native automation accelerates across the enterprise. Elementum is built around the idea that there's a better way to run critical business processes. Phil brings the experience and ambition to help us take what we've built to the next level, and I'm excited to have him leading our next phase of growth. Duggan brings two decades of enterprise technology and go-to-market experience, most recently helping scale Astronomer's international business and building its EMEA revenue organization. Duggan brings deep experience building enterprise sales teams, expanding into new markets and turning emerging technology categories into repeatable revenue engines. "Elementum is built around the idea that there's a better way to run critical business processes," said Nader Mikhail, founder and CEO of Elementum. "We spent years building a platform that enterprises could trust as an AI-native alternative to legacy SaaS. Phil brings the experience and ambition to help us take what we've built to the next level, and I'm excited to have him leading our next phase of growth." Demand for the platform is accelerating worldwide, as enterprises move to replace legacy software with AI-native automation that runs inside their own data cloud. The Elementum team will meet this demand with plans to grow the sales team 5x this year. "Enterprise software is at an inflection point. AI is creating an opportunity to rethink how critical work gets done, rather than simply adding intelligence to the same legacy systems," said Duggan. "What drew me to Elementum was the rare combination of a differentiated product, enterprise customers already seeing real results, and a team with the experience and ambition to build a category-defining company. My focus now is building the go-to-market organization to bring that approach to more enterprises globally." Duggan joins an experienced group of enterprise software operators and investors supporting Elementum's next stage of growth. The company's board includes Frank Slootman and Michael Scarpelli, who helped scale both ServiceNow and Snowflake through their public-market debuts, alongside investors Jim Davidson, Christopher Schaepe and Chad Peets. Elementum works closely with Chad Peets of RPT Partners, a veteran enterprise software leader and talent builder who helped build Snowflake's sales organization. Peets will work closely with Duggan as Elementum builds the commercial organization needed to support its next stage of growth. Elementum is scaling its go-to-market, engineering, and customer teams and is recruiting operators who want to build the defining enterprise platform of the AI era. Come build it: elementum.ai.

USEReady and Elementum partner to accelerate Agentic Automation across Finance, Procurement, and Operations. Partnership to be showcased at Exclusive Breakfast with Agents Event at Harvard Club, New York City, April 16, 2026 NEW YORK, April 7, 2026: USEReady, a global provider of AI and analytics modernization solutions, today announced a strategic partnership with Elementum, the open orchestration platform for enterprise AI workflows, to accelerate enterprise adoption of Agentic Automation. USEReady will integrate its AlphaGenie Agentic Automation Bundle with Elementum's no-data-movement workflow capabilities - enabling enterprises to design, deploy, and scale reasoning-driven AI agents directly inside their existing data environments. The partnership brings together three complementary strengths: a secure, scalable cloud data foundation; Elementum's open workflow and process orchestration layer; and AlphaGenie, USEReady's proprietary suite of pre-configured cognitive and agentic AI agents tailored for specific industries and business functions. Together, they enable enterprises to automate complex, cross-functional processes without disrupting existing data architectures or replacing core systems. The initiative establishes a unified foundation for enterprises looking to move beyond dashboards and rule-based automation toward cognitive, goal-oriented agents that reason, adapt, and act within governed data ecosystems - with measurable ROI within 90 days. "Our customers want automation that thinks, not just executes. By combining AlphaGenie's agentic intelligence with Elementum's open orchestration, we are enabling enterprises to automate reasoning itself. This partnership represents the evolution from data to decision to autonomous action - all within a secure, compliant environment," said Uday Hegde, Co-Founder & CEO, USEReady. Each AlphaGenie agent is pre-trained for specific business functions. Built on USEReady's ART (Accurate, Responsible, Trustworthy) principle, the agents ensure automation is not only intelligent but also explainable, compliant, and auditable. Early customer engagements have demonstrated 3-5x faster decision-making, 25-40% higher throughput, 15-30% cost reduction, and 100% auditable execution across enterprise operations. "Enterprises don't need more AI. They need AI that actually works inside the systems they already run - without moving data, without burning tokens, without a 12-month implementation. USEReady gets that. Our partnership is built on this shared conviction," commented Jeremy Walsh, Global Head of Strategic Enablement & Partners, Elementum. The partnership will be showcased at 'Breakfast with Agents: Explore the Future of AI-Powered Finance, Procurement & Operations,' an exclusive, invite-only session co-hosted by USEReady and Elementum on April 16, 2026 at the Harvard Club's Mahogany Room in New York City. The session will feature live demonstrations across enterprise use cases in Finance, Procurement, and Operations - including intelligent F&A intake automation, frictionless vendor onboarding, contract intelligence, and software and license optimization. Designed for CFOs, Finance Operations leaders, Procurement heads, Compliance and Risk executives, and COOs, it is part of USEReady's ongoing Breakfast with Agents series, which regularly convenes senior practitioners to examine how agentic AI is reshaping enterprise operations. "The Harvard Club session is where we bring agentic intelligence and open orchestration together in front of the leaders who need them most. Our goal is to move the conversation from 'what is agentic AI' to 'here is what it does in your workflows, today'," said Lalit Bakshi, Co-Founder & President, USEReady.
