AI services firm Dataminr has appointed Matthew Harrell (pictured) as its new chief partner officer.
Drawing from his experience leading global channels and alliances at Cloudflare, and previously as Americas channel leader at Google Cloud, Harrell will be responsible for growing and scaling Dataminr's global partner ecosystem. He will be responsible for identifying new partner opportunities to bring emerging AI applications, services and solutions to market.
"At multiple previous companies, Matt successfully leveraged partner channels to accelerate go-to-market efforts and make a significant impact on revenue growth," said Ted Bailey, founder and CEO of Dataminr. "He is an extremely valuable asset, and exactly the right fit to help scale our customer base by bringing our AI platform and products to market through new and unique routes.
“We see a massive runway ahead for our partner ecosystem and have the utmost confidence that Matt will enable us to tap into the full potential of our partner capabilities."
Harrell's appointment follows the hiring of cybersecurity veteran Brian Gumbel as president and chief operating officer, and the launch of the supplier’s souped up generative AI platform ReGenAI.
"Dataminr is at an important inflection point in its growth journey. It's one of the few companies in the AI space that has demonstrated strong product market fit for its AI platform," said Harrell. "There is an opportunity to bolster our partner strategy to fully leverage our industry-leading AI platform, to help partners bring unique applications, solutions and services to their customers, that combine the power of Dataminr's predictive and generative AI to achieve far better outcomes.”
