Artific, developer of the leading AI platform of the same name, is proud to announce the appointment of Ivo Rupert as its new Chief Executive Officer. Rupert took over the leadership of Artific in May.

Rupert brings an impressive track record in technological innovation, scaling up and strategic leadership. In previous roles he successfully shaped commercial growth strategies and led digital transformations in a wide range of organisations. His vision of collaboration, scalability and innovation fits seamlessly with Artific’s strategic course.

Building out the growth phase

A key priority in his new role is building out Artific’s growth strategy through a strong partner network. Rupert will focus on strengthening existing partnerships and developing a robust network of implementation and distribution partners. This approach enables Artific to scale up faster, enter new markets and serve customers even more effectively.

“Artific has laid a strong foundation with an innovative AI platform and a dedicated team,” says Rupert. “The coming period is all about acceleration. By working with the right partners, we can increase our impact and make AI accessible to even more organisations.”

Founder Ferran Rohaan is also delighted that Rupert has joined: “With Ivo on board, we are significantly increasing our strategic and commercial strength. His experience and drive are exactly what we need to realise our ambitions. At the same time, this gives me, as CTO, more room to focus on the technical development of the Artific AI Platform and on new initiatives such as the Artific GenAI Research Lab and AI HUB Twente. I am looking forward to this new phase in our development.”

Under Rupert’s leadership, Artific will continue to focus on practical AI solutions that help companies in every industry make their processes smarter, faster and more efficient, with applications in marketing, sales, customer service, HR, IT and knowledge management, among other areas.
