AFTER CELONIS AND PERSONIO: BENEDIKT LORENZ BECOMES NEW VP SALES AT bao.

Munich | 03.05.2023 – Technology company bao, which develops an AI-based solution for real-time sales call support and analysis, announced the addition of Benedikt Lorenz, who previously built the Celonis and Personio sales teams, to its leadership team.

In his new role as VP Sales, Benedikt Lorenz will be responsible for sales and the strategic growth direction of the company. He plays a central role in developing bao’s further go-to-market strategy as well as expanding the sales team.

Benedikt Lorenz from Munich can already look back on more than 20 years of sales experience and most recently held the position of Director Global Business Development at Jedox. In this role, he was responsible for the company’s cross-national global sales strategy and managed the departments in Boston, Paris, London, Dubai and Sydney, among others. Previously, he served as Head of Sales Development at Personio and Head of Inside Sales at Celonis, where he played an instrumental role in scaling the sales teams and developing a successful go-to-market strategy. He also drove the digitization of sales structures and ensured, among other things, the implementation of an effective CRM structure, which at Personio included the introduction of bao.

“We are of course delighted to have Benedikt Lorenz on board as our new VP Sales at bao,” says Dr. Patrick Strunkmann-Meister, CEO and founder of bao. “Given the new hype around AI, we have ambitious growth plans for the future. We’re sure Ben’s impressive track record and sales scaling skills will be a significant asset as we continue to grow our business.”

“Sales is even more than ever in a constant state of change – especially in this day and age where we witness rapid advances in AI & software every day,” says Benedikt Lorenz. “I am sure that AI-powered systems are on their way to becoming the indispensable digital assistant of every sales rep and I’m excited to join bao in making this vision a reality.”
