Citiri Secures Funding to Transform Airport Remodeling and Modernization Projects
ATLANTA (PRWEB) June 19, 2018 -- The funding will be used to bolster the company's marketing efforts and broaden its product development. With Citiri, airports can optimize communications, collaboration and coordination across remodeling and modernization projects by connecting data and workflows for stakeholders across the entire airport.
Some of the key benefits to airport owner and operators include:
• Lower Total Cost of Ownership (TCO)
• IROP Avoidance
• Enhanced Customer Experience
• Higher Staff Productivity
• Seamless Operational Readiness, Activation & Transition (ORAT)
"With experience building and successfully exiting multiple software companies, we are extremely proud that an investor of Bob's caliber has chosen to back Citiri and our transformative technology. Bob's involvement will greatly benefit our company's ability to grow," said Ortez Gude, CEO of Citiri.
“Citiri is built on the Force.com platform provided by Salesforce.com. By leveraging Force.com’s secure, cloud-based, mobile-enabled services, we are able to focus on delivering operational functionality and seamless integrations that directly benefit customers. Our solution is engineered to work at airports of any size, be it Regional, O&D, HUB or a multi-airport operator,” said Collin Browning, CTO of Citiri.
“After scouring Atlanta for companies to be a part of, I couldn't be happier to partner with Citiri. Leveraging the power of the Salesforce platform to work exclusively to satisfy the needs to airports worldwide, is especially exciting. Airport operations will be forever transformed, just like risk management was transformed by Riskonnect,” said Bob Morrell.
“Disruptions in flight operations damage revenues and reputations,” said Gude. “We’ll be able to further mitigate that risk and create additional value for customers, with IoT, blockchain and augmented reality. We are out to transform the way airports are planned, built, operated and experienced.”

About Bob Morrell
Bob Morrell is an Atlanta-based serial entrepreneur in enterprise software. Morrell has spent 25 years in the field of risk management software, becoming the leading authority on risk management technology and cloud computing.
He co-founded Riskonnect in July 2007 to develop and market comprehensive software solutions addressing strategic and traditional, insurable risk management. Riskonnect was the first company in the world to build exclusively on the Force.com platform, provided by Salesforce.com. In June of 2017, Riskonnect was acquired by Thoma Bravo.
Morrell started programming professionally as a 14-year-old high school student who had to take the school bus to a job where he was the first employee without a college degree. His early taste for technology and a lifelong penchant for programming led Morrell to co-found his first risk management software firm, Risk Laboratories, while a sophomore at Georgia Tech. That firm is now Ventiv Technology, owned by Symphony Technology Group.
