Known Pty Limited, trading as Kudosity Co, a leading player in the messaging technology industry, has appointed Victoria Whitby as managing director, effective July 2024.
Whitby brings extensive leadership experience in finance and technology, leading teams in ASX-listed companies, Lendlease and Commonwealth Bank of Australia. In her previous role as chief financial officer at property software platform, Archistar.ai, she had a proven track record of securing partnership alliances with global cloud and channel partners as well as designing capital and expansion strategies for global operations.
As Kudosity’s first managing director, Whitby will work closely with Kudosity CEO, Alex Macpherson, who said, “I’m delighted to have secured a leader of Victoria’s calibre to drive Kudosity’s continued growth and success. Victoria is known for building high-performing teams in both commercial and technology sectors and developing multiple business models for product launches and market expansions.
“She brings a range of qualities that we believe are well-suited to taking the business through its next stage of growth, particularly her proven success in leading technology strategy and driving organic growth in challenging environments.”
Since its inception, Kudosity has consistently achieved year-over-year (YoY) revenue growth, averaging 38% each year over the last decade. Key to its success is the calibre of its people, who bring a wealth of expertise, creativity, and dedication to their roles.
With proven success and expertise in the Australian and New Zealand markets, Kudosity is well-positioned to continue its expansion and provision of valuable solutions to businesses across Asia and the United States. As the company further grows into these regions, it will bring its extensive experience and industry knowledge to help businesses across various sectors.
Commenting on her new role, Whitby said, “I’m delighted to join Kudosity at such a pivotal moment in the company’s growth journey. Kudosity has established itself as a leader in the messaging technology industry, and I’m excited to be part of the team that will drive the company’s next phase of expansion and innovation. With its talented team, innovative messaging solutions, and unwavering commitment to customer success, Kudosity is poised for continued growth and impact on a global scale.”
In addition to this leadership change, Kudosity has relaunched its newly optimised website, underpinned by a simplified navigation structure and enhanced search functionality. The website’s new content management system (CMS) also drives faster development and seamless content updates.
“The website’s relaunch addresses challenges including market confusion regarding Kudosity’s brands and products. This new site represents Kudosity’s dedication to continuously improve and innovate in all aspects of business, from the inside out,” Macpherson added.
