Professional Journey

Matrix42 describes Adams as bringing more than 20 years of experience in the software industry and a track record of scaling SaaS organizations at publicly traded companies and high-growth scaleups. The companies it names span several corners of business software: Ariba, the procurement and spend-management network now owned by SAP; Planview, the portfolio and work-management vendor; Pricefx, the cloud pricing-software company; and Mercell, the European public-tender and procurement platform. The company’s announcement does not give his titles or dates at those businesses, and they are not recorded here.

He joined Matrix42 on 23 February 2026 as Chief Revenue Officer. The company announced the appointment from Frankfurt am Main on 5 March 2026, framing it around growing demand for “sovereign, European-made software solutions” and a recent Forrester report in which it said it stood out as the leading European vendor for enterprise service management. In the release Adams said the team he was joining “has already established a clear vision and significant momentum for our growth journey”, and chief executive Niilo Fredrikson said Adams “brings the experience and mindset to help us scale further”.

The appointment was a handover rather than a newly created role. Roberto Casetta, who had built Matrix42’s international sales from 2019 and led marketing and sales as CRO, stepped into an Executive Advisor role as Adams took over.
