Zilliant – a pricing company – expanded its leadership team with the addition of new CTO, Adi Kavaler and SVP, Partnerships and Alliances, Claude Sammoury (pictured, L-R).
“Adi and Claude are the ideal executives to further our vision for building a different kind of pricing company that touches many departments and functions,” said Zilliant CEO, Pascal Yammine. “Pricing is a core business process and has expanded to include key sales processes like CPQ. Adi and Claude have demonstrated they have the experience and insight to evolve our partner ecosystem and products to support that vision.”
Kavaler brings over 25 years of experience in leading large-scale global teams in Fortune 100 and 500 companies. Before joining Zilliant, he served senior global executive engineering and product roles with SAP, HPE and CentralSquare, and was most recently the Chief Strategy Officer with cloud platform solutions provider Quali. He will lead the engineering, technology and IT teams on product development and innovation.
“I’ve long admired Zilliant’s leadership in the world of pricing software,” said Kavaler. “There’s so much opportunity there to incorporate generative AI and proactive automation that will allow companies to become much more efficient, and I’m excited to get started.”
Sammoury, meanwhile, has experience leading revenue, alliances and corporate strategy functions, with deep expertise in Quote-to-Cash and extensive industry relationships. Before Zilliant, he served as CRO with Revolent Group and Halosight, and also worked for Cognizant/ATG. Sammoury’s focus at Zilliant will be scaling and integrating the partnerships and alliances strategy across the organization, leading and growing the existing team while taking commercial partnerships to a new level.
“As we expand our partnerships, we’ll empower our customers with more flexibility and options to achieve pricing excellence,” said Sammoury. “Pricing is a complex challenge, with high impact and high reward for organizations. We are focused on equipping businesses with the technology and expertise to master strategic pricing, drive smarter decisions and accelerate revenue growth.”
