Kijoon Lee is a Vice President, Strategic Alliances at Denodo. They possess expertise in go to market strategy, product marketing, strategy, enterprise software, analytics and 17 more skills. Colleagues describe them as "Over the last year Kijoon and I have worked on Smart Vending solutions with Kijoon as the marketing lead for most of the time. Smart vending is a huge success within SAP as it presents an opportunity to optimize large scale vending operations for Brands using IoT and telemetry and promises among other benefits to propel B2C mobile payments and help automate business processes. Smart Vending has garnered tremendous interest from customers globally, Press (MIT Tech review, HBR) and TV (BBC, CCTV, Bloomberg) as well as the most senior thought leaders inside SAP such Steve Lucas, President SAP Keynotes at HANA Insider, Cisco IoT World Forum) as well as board members up to the SAP CEO. I have worked with Kijoon hand-in-hand with the product team to launch IOT products/initiatives and drive success through the activities following activities: - Drive awareness and thought leadership for SAP in the IOT and SMV space - Create an immersive and engaging experience for customers - Orchestrate PR activities to create buzz and excitement for solutions and helping to secure coverage w/ top tier media and analysts - Help generate significant demand with major customers - Drive innovation around go-to-market activities - major presence at TechCrunch, SAPPHIRE, TEchEd. We started out 2013 with a pure idea that we had developed jointly with a few customers on paper and very limited budget and resources. When I pitched it to Kijoon, he was immediately excited about the ability of our work to demonstrate through leadership in IoT and how IoT would help real time process automation on a large scale on HANA. Kijoon worked tirelessly to get stakeholders excited and the concept into major tradeshows and on stage in keynotes. Kijoon got us in front of the right people and helped secure funding for Mobile World Congress was such a success that we needed to build more machines. Kijoon again stepped out of his way to get this funded. Today there is a fleet of machines and showcases around the globe in every major SAP Location, used daily to demonstrate SAP IoT vision and reality. None of this would have happened without Kijoons initiative, support and trust to take more or less unproven idea and turn it into reality. I was always impressed by Kijoons professionalism and agility to work around the red tape to make things happen. He supported us with developing marketing plans, securing marketing budget as well what became a sizeable logistics operation to get the 700 LB machines to the right locations in time. In 2014 we were present at over 100 tradeshows.", "Over the last year Kijoon and I have worked on Smart Vending solutions with Kijoon as the marketing lead for most of the time.

He is an extremely diligent manager who is a collaborator, a communicator, meticulous, hands-on and is a big-believer in "Team Values and Culture". Under his leadership we lead the marketing of SAP and SAP HANA's innovation agenda which required doing things which had never been done before in the company. A company of SAP's size requires a different level of passion and stubborn-ness to excel in achieving your goals especially when you are trying to do something "DIFFERENT". Kijoon and his team achieved its objectives with flying colors. Whenever there were addition to the team (new hire or internal transfers), Kijoon made it a point to discuss, write-down and follow-through TEAM VALUES and CULTURE to ensure every team member was on the same page. I would love to work with Kijoon again."
