'Dr. Kingdon was co-founder of the Intelligent System Lab at UCL and Searchspace where he was CEO between 1993 and until its highly successful exit in 2005, when he sold the business to US private equity.'

[hazl] 22/10/2019 07:33

'Kingdon had previously communicated his intention to step back from the Board of Blue Prism to focus on several AI projects, which have now largely been completed. The Board is confident in this new more commercial role, Dr. Kingdon's experience can accelerate the Group's stance in relation to rapidly evolving AI technology. As Executive Chairman Dr. Kingdon will assume direct reporting and leadership responsibility for Blue Prism's go-to-market and product'


I thought they might re-invent themselves in some way....

Businesses are trying to do things easier and faster with the help of software that can connect and automate the patchwork of applications and systems in their networks.

These tools, called robotic process automation, or RPA, can speed up processes and eliminate keying and other errors — saving a business a lot of money. For example, RPA systems can take on basic data entry tasks or generate automated email responses to customers.

It is still a small market, with total revenue of roughly $850 million in 2018, according to analyst firm Gartner. But it is a fast growing market. Gartner estimated the RPA segment posted a year-over-growth of 63% in 2018.

IT Central Station, the review site where IT professionals are able to weigh in on the software they use, recently conducted a survey on RPA tools.

Here are the top robotic process automation companies, according to IT professionals on IT Central Station.

By the way, I am not short on BP, though I am waiting for a good time to enter.

You must have confused me with someone else.

[blue prism is truly fcuked] 21/10/2019 16:30

ok HAZL fair enough, you have actually been around in BP since 2016.

Good foresight, 25x in 2 years stocks dont appear everyday.

[dannyboylife] 21/10/2019 12:52

No, I said DVDs would become obselete.

[bluepeter1] 21/10/2019 12:34

Danny- were you also the guy who said DVD’s would never take off?

[hazl] 21/10/2019 12:01

5987
I don't need to convince anyone.Very comfortable with my takings over the years.
Anybody would have been mad not to have taken a few out over the time.
There are some things,however, just as important as short term profit which you will probably never understand.
Again if somebody suddenly takes these out,your short,would suddenly be really under water.

[dannyboylife] 21/10/2019 11:42

There is no aquisition Target until at least low of $250m mkt cap which is coming, and even then? What you have to understand is, and I've said it before, their software is not unique or clever. Gartner hype cycle publically calling RPA market over by 2021 and little IP with 100s of irrelevant and easily duplicatable, non-loyal partnerships isn't fooling anyone.

This market is sinking faster that a cannon ball as enterprises and analysts read and write about the mostly tiny impact this technology has on costs. They have switched to chasing 5 bot deals that will never be profitable as price per bot falls to $500 and lower. More bad news coming over next few months.

[montyhedge] 21/10/2019 10:31

I see 550p has fair value.

[blue prism is truly fcuked] 21/10/2019 09:56

what hazl is trying very hard to convince everyone:

hazl bagged a 20x winner, but forgot to cash out.

lol

[hatfullofsky] 21/10/2019 09:11

Need 800 to hold

[hatfullofsky] 19/10/2019 10:42

Moved below support, next action is critical. Nothing new in the news so this is about MM's positioning and shaking out weak holders. Nothing new. At > £600m MCap it's expensive today but tomorrow?

[hazl] 19/10/2019 10:37

Strange crowing from some posters....I found this.... at a £1 a share and had
a great year.
If I choose to keep a few,as it goes through it's next stage,it's my choice.
It has been an incredible share.
Darlings of one year are rarely,darlings the next, but just in case it gets into takeover territory I have my stance.
I rarely post here now, which gives it's own message,perhaps, but if you 5982, need to keep getting approval or praise for your actions,not only are you going to be disappointed, I think you'll find it makes you look a bit immature.

THANKS TO TROJANHORSE

What’s good about the Credit Suisse position is that they are a user of Blue Prism’s software. So while you can’t read too much into it, i like to think there is a strategy based on actual product (and market) knowledge. hxxps://www.blueprism.com/resources/videos/credit-suisse-leveraging-robotics-as-a-competitive-differentiator/

[blue prism is truly fcuked] 18/10/2019 17:14

Think this new low concludes Blue Prism for the week.

Hazl, slave2trade, smerch, and all other idiots who are long from 2000p, have a great weekend.

[dtaliadoros] 18/10/2019 16:16

What's with the holdings RNs from credit Suisse from last week. First showing an increase in holding then following day decrease. Buying on behalf of someone else? Looks.like there has been some position.building out there.

[dtaliadoros] 18/10/2019 09:12

Have no directors been buying? If not, why not?

[blue prism is truly fcuked] 17/10/2019 16:26

April to June
1950 to 1300

June to August
1300 to 900

AUgust to October
900 to ???


Sensibly speaking next leg should be 600-700

[blue prism is truly fcuked] 17/10/2019 16:17

think this is a new low, even for Blue Prism.

[dannyboylife] 17/10/2019 15:58

Pricing for RPA has tanked to the point, the licenses have become a commodity. Few are paying more than $1000 a license now. I warned you all this was happening even when BP pricing was still at $15k. UIpath is cleaning up in global sales but even with their growth (large numbers of clients, small deals), are not making money at these prices, so chasing market share. Interesting times for all. With all the AI stuff going to Amazon, IBM and other big names, (simple API calls to those engines, you cannot even charge for those technologies as an RPA vendor. They are very very cheap.
