“I am excited for what the future holds for Coveo and the exciting opportunities that lay ahead of us,” Lajoie commented. “Businesses today need to go beyond digital transformation to adopt AI and deliver true relevance transformation. This is a key strategy of our own growth here at Coveo, and why we are also aggressively investing internally to deliver the most relevant and effective customer and employee experiences.”
