REDWOOD CITY, Calif.—July 19, 2017 – Ivalua has appointed Alex Saric as Chief Marketing Officer to further develop its brand and accelerate growth. Alex brings more than fifteen years of relevant experience building and shaping the Spend Management market, including recent roles leading international and global business network marketing at SAP Ariba.

With a unique ability to not just address all procurement processes, but also all spend categories with a unified SaaS platform, Ivalua enables customers to maximize value today while maintaining the agility to thrive tomorrow", said Alex Saric.
Since its creation in 2000, Ivalua has realized steady growth, with a 57 % increase in sales in 2016. "Ivalua continues to move forward each year, achieving increasingly ambitious goals.
