We are very pleased to have been able to hire and develop such a great pool of talent - all committed to achieving success for our customers and who take pride in spurring the narrative around o9’s Digital Brain forward: our AI-driven, integrated, cloud-native platform that’s helping Fortune 500 businesses make better decisions, plan more effectively, and make better use of the earth’s resources.”

We continue to rapidly grow our partner network and since 2020 have certified more than a thousand consultants as o9 implementers. We expect to double that in 2021, with a high quality program focused on delivering certifications in technical skills of architecting and configuring the o9 platform as well as advanced analytics skills in ML and big data analytics that are integral part of o9 solutions that we deliver to our clients,” says Igor Rikalo, President and COO of o9.
