UiPath is the Proud Sponsor of Palace of Westminster Event Celebrating Centennial of Modern Romania
Leader in robotic process automation recognises 100th birthday of the company’s birthplace and contribution of Romanian citizens to UK life
LONDON--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Leading Enterprise Robotic Process Automation (RPA) software company UiPath is proud to be a sponsor of Romania 100 in the UK, a high-profile reception at the Palace of Westminster marking the 100th birthday of modern Romania.
UiPath was created in Bucharest in 2015 by two Romanian software engineers, Daniel Dines and Marius Tirca, and less than 3 years later was named the first unicorn company born in Eastern Europe. Its third office was opened in 2016 in London, and more than 1,800 customers worldwide have chosen UiPath as their platform of choice for enterprise RPA. The current company’s valuation has soared to $3 billion in the meantime and it is now preparing for the launch of its innovative Automation First Immersion Lab in London, which will bring RPA to life for customers and partners alike.
Honouring the contribution of Romanians to British life, the November 28 reception will be hosted by Drew Hendry MP, Vice Chair of the All-Party Parliamentary Group for Romania in advance of Romania’s national celebration on December 1. Guests include MPs, peers and 100 leading figures with links to Romania from the fields of business, science and the arts along with representatives of community organisations, charities and good causes.
Those attending the reception will include: His Excellency Dan Mihalache, the Romanian ambassador to the UK; the London-based Romanian actress Madalina Bellariu Ion who is a patron of the event; businessman and chairman of Canary Wharf Group, Sir George Iacobescu; pianist and cultural entrepreneur, Alexandra Dariescu, and actress Anamaria Marinca.
“We are honoured to sponsor this reception celebrating what it means to be a Romanian in the UK and what Romanians have contributed to this country,” said Kulpreet Singh, Managing Director EMEA at UiPath. “The UK has played a key role in the development of UiPath. We are looking forward to a continuation of the close, flourishing relationship between Romania and the UK, which has been so beneficial to everyone.”
