LONDON, August 2, 2018 /PRNewswire/ --
CloudSense, the intelligent commerce
company, today announced its board line-up.
The impressively assembled board reinforces CloudSense's global

investment from Vector Capital, opened new offices around the world
and delivered customer success across its industries.
The board's veritable wealth of experience will provide guidance
as the company continues to rapidly stride forward. The newly
appointed board members - Dr. Rainer
Gawlick, Patrick Nichols and
Eldon Klaassen - join CloudSense
co-founders, CEO, Richard Britton,
and CTO, Alex Fuller, alongside
Matt Blodgett, Managing Director at
Vector Capital, and Tom Smith, Vice
President at Vector Capital, to complete the board.
Dr. Gawlick is an experienced and successful enterprise software
go-to-market leader, currently a board member at Meltwater, Chyron
Hego, Proto Labs (NYSE: PRLB) and
Progress Software (NSDQ: PRGS). Rainer holds a Ph.D. in Electrical
Engineering and Computer Science from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and a B.A.
in Physics from the University of California
at Berkeley. Eldon Klaasen, a
Tulane University graduate, is Founder,
Chairman, and former CEO of Allegro Development - a pioneer and
industry leader in enterprise software for the energy and utilities
markets. Patrick Nichols holds over
ten years of deep CPQ experience at Trilogy Software and Versata,
and is currently the CEO of Corel Corporation. Patrick has a BS in
computer science from Cornell.
"With CloudSense's growth surging these exceptional appointments
lay strong foundations for our continued success. We're delighted
to welcome Rainer, Patrick and Eldon to the board, their experience
and expertise will be indispensable as we continue our aggressive
expansion globally across multiple industries," commented

The board's calibre and knowledge reflects the intelligent
commerce company's rising trajectory. The beginning of this year
