HQ: Munich, Germany • Workflow & Process Automation (RPA, BPM) • Process Mining • 1001-5000 employees • Est. 2011 • Trust B • Hiring 190, 20 new
Celonis is a software company founded in Munich in 2011 by three students who built a tool to work out why an IT helpdesk was slow, and in doing so helped create the process mining category. Its platform reconstructs how business processes actually run by reading event logs out of systems such as SAP, Oracle and Salesforce, then shows where work stalls, loops or leaks money against how the process was designed. Dual-headquartered in Munich and New York and valued above thirteen billion dollars, it sells to large enterprises looking to fix supply chain, finance and customer service operations without replacing the underlying systems.

HQ: London, United Kingdom • Machine Learning • Autonomous Driving • 501-1000 employees • Est. 2017 • Startup • Hiring 175, 11 new
Wayve is a British autonomous driving company founded in Cambridge in 2017 that trains end-to-end neural networks to drive rather than assembling hand-written rules around high-definition maps. Its AI Driver learns from camera video and can be deployed on standard vehicle sensor sets, which is what lets the company demonstrate driving in cities it has never mapped. Headquartered in London and backed by a one billion dollar SoftBank-led round plus investment from NVIDIA, Microsoft and Uber, it partners with carmakers to ship assisted driving software and is developing fully driverless deployments.
