15, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Alteryx, Inc. (NYSE: AYX),
revolutionizing business through data science and analytics, today

After announcing the establishment of its APAC headquarters in
Singapore last year, Alteryx is
expanding its impact in the region, strategically placing the
Tokyo office to help accelerate
analytic talent and capitalize on market potential in the dawn of
digital transformation. The company appointed Ryo Yoshimura as country manager of Japan.
He will support Celine Siow,
regional vice president of APAC and Japan, to build the company's momentum in
country and. Yoshimura and the local team in Japan will also work closely with the
company's partners in the region, including NTT Data, LHit, KCME
and Classmethod.
"Japan played a key role in the
digital revolution of the 20th century with unique
innovations in technology and science, and is continuing this
leadership as technology leaders prioritize artificial intelligence
(AI) and machine learning (ML)," said Ryo
Yoshimura. "Our Tokyo presence will enable Alteryx to better
partner with Japanese organizations, closing the gap between their
visions for the future and reality. We will accomplish this by
providing our code-free and code-friendly platform, global
community and learning resources to develop data talent quickly and
create an analytics-centric culture."
In addition to extending support to local customers, Alteryx
aims to address the prominent data science talent gap that exists
in Japan, consistent with global

reveals that data-related jobs will be the most in demand within
the next four to five years, along with AI and ML specialists.
Alteryx is committed to helping companies across the globe increase
data literacy and fuel a culture of analytics by providing a
platform that simultaneously addresses the needs of the data
analyst, data scientist and citizen data scientist, and puts the
thrill of solving into the hands of the business user.
