AskELIE, an AI-native hyperautomation startup based in Northampton, England, has named David Lahey as Chief Growth Officer and Board Advisor. Lahey brings extensive experience, including six successful SaaS exits and expertise across Seed to Series D fundraising rounds.
AskELIE’s platform automates complex, repetitive business processes, enabling teams to focus on high-value work. By combining AI-driven process orchestration with hyperautomation, the company helps enterprises reduce costs, improve throughput, and achieve measurable productivity gains.
Lahey’s growth strategy expertise will support AskELIE’s next phase of expansion. “The companies I’ve helped scale all reached a turning point when they removed the friction between strategy and execution,” said Lahey. “We’re building exactly the kind of transformative capability with proprietary AI that enterprises will need to compete over the next decade.”
“David’s Go-To-Market track record in scaling SaaS companies through operational excellence and customer trust makes him a force multiplier for our growth plans,” said Derek Kilroe, CEO of AskELIE. “As enterprises adopt hyperautomation to drive efficiency and resilience, his expertise will help us capture that momentum.”
Hyperautomation Market Potential
Hyperautomation is projected to exceed $50 billion by 2029, with adoption accelerating across industries where automation impacts both top-line growth and operating margins. AskELIE is strategically positioned to capture this wave, and Lahey’s operational and fundraising experience will help drive the company’s next phase of scale.
