At its annual customer and partner conference,
the leading Enterprise Orchestration company announced its social
impact programming
Workato®, the leading AI-driven enterprise orchestration
platform, today announced the launch of Workato Cares, the
company’s philanthropic initiative which aims to empower
individuals with the knowledge, education, and tools to succeed and
to enable nonprofit organizations to do more with less, powered by
enterprise orchestration. As a part of Workato Cares, the company
announced it has joined Pledge 1% and is committed to donating
equity, product, and time for social good.
Workato Cares aims to give employees a sense of purpose,
reinforce corporate culture and responsibility, and provide ongoing
opportunities for connection and collaboration. The mission of this
initiative is to be a force for good and empower people with
technology, giving them the ability to build, make an impact, and
change their lives. Workato’s co-founder and CEO, Vijay Tella, has
been committed to giving back since founding the company in 2013,
working with several nonprofits early in the company’s
inception.
As part of Workato Cares, the company is launching its
“MillionFold Impact” project where the company is targeting to
reach the goals below within the next 10 years:
- 1 million people helped through Workato employees in
partnerships with nonprofits and NGOs
- $10 million in product donations to nonprofit
organizations
- $100 million in cost savings for nonprofit organizations using
Workato
“As leaders, we have an obligation to give back to our
communities to help create a better future. Everyone at Workato can
drive positive change and lasting impact where it counts,” said
Vijay Tella, co-founder, and CEO at Workato. “With Workato Cares,
we’re committing our time, resources, and product to help create a
more equitable and thriving future. We are fortunate that Workato
is at a stage where we can dedicate resources to support corporate
philanthropy as an integral part of our business and values. I am
proud of this initiative and cannot wait to join my fellow team
members in serving our community.”
Workato has also joined Pledge 1%, a global movement to create a
new normal for companies of all sizes and stages to have a positive

Workato is proud to join the Pledge 1% community and encourages

pillars of Workato’s founding principles. Workato leads with their
products and platform but at the core of what they do, they are
dedicated to changing communities and having a lasting impact
through their Pledge 1% commitment,” said Jan D'Alessandro, Pledge
