CAMBRIDGE, Mass. – May 10, 2022 – Pegasystems Inc. (NASDAQ: PEGA), the software company that crushes business complexity, today announced that CRN®, a brand of The Channel Company, has named Carola Cazenave, head of global partner ecosystem, Pega, to its 2022 Power 100 list for the second consecutive year. The Power 100 list is a subset of influential leaders chosen from the annual CRN Women of the Channel list that also featured 19 additional Pega professionals from all areas of IT whose vision, expertise, and contributions have a daily impact on the industry.

The annual Power 100 honorees were chosen by the CRN editorial team based on their insight and influence in supporting IT channel success. This distinguished group of executive IT leaders demonstrates incredible commitment and leadership by going above and beyond to inspire others and make an impact on their organization and the entire IT channel through perseverance and an unshakeable dedication to channel success.

Under Cazenave’s leadership, Pega grew the partner team to ensure a vibrant, client-first Pega Partner Ecosystem and established a partner-centric transformation strategy.
