OutSystems on the growth path, appoints new VP for APAC

OutSystems, which provides a low-code* application development platform, is actively marketing itself across Asia, including in new markets such as Vietnam, Malaysia, and Indonesia.

OutSystems has gained more than 75 new customers in Asia Pacific since 2013, including Atos and REST Industry Super in Australia, HaelthTech and Transnational Diversified Group in the Philippines, and Ricoh and NCS in Singapore. This year the company has added new customers in each of these countries as well as in Japan and Hong Kong, and formed new partnerships in India, Thailand, and Indonesia. 

“OutSystems has seen remarkable growth in Asia Pacific over the last three years,” said Paulo Rosado, CEO of OutSystems. “As we continue to execute on our global expansion plans, we’re building out our leadership team with experienced executives with deep experience in the region.”

The company has appointed Mark Weaser as the new VP for Asia Pacific in line with OutSystems' leadership strategy. With his proven track record in scaling fast-growing software companies across multiple geographies in Asia Pacific, Weaser will play a critical role in building upon OutSystems success in the region. He will be focused on increasing adoption of the company's low-code application development platform among leading companies across Asia Pacific.

“Mark has tremendous experience building successful businesses in Asia Pacific,” Rosado said. “He’s got the strong regional understanding and business acumen necessary to help us fuel additional growth.”

Weaser brings more than 25 years of senior management and business development experience to OutSystems. He has held top leadership positions across a variety of industries including enterprise technology and logistics, where he drove revenue growth for companies such as Qumu, Manugistics, Manhattan Associates, and EXE Technologies.

“Asia Pacific has emerged as the largest potential growth market for the adoption of mobile devices,” said Weaser. “Many leading companies now realise that digital transformation offers major opportunities for growth.”

More hiring is expected. OutSystems projects headcount growth of 50% over the course of 2016.

*Low-code refers to the ability to enable fast application development and delivery with relatively less manual coding.
