Pricefx , the global leader in cloud-native pricing software, today announced that Ronak Sheth has been appointed Chief Executive Officer, effective immediately. Sheth previously served as President and Chief Revenue Officer since May 2021.
With more than two decades of experience in leadership and board roles in both early stage and high growth technology companies, Sheth has been delivering outstanding growth for over a year. During the first half of 2022 , Pricefx signed more than 25 new customer contracts and experienced annualized recurring revenue (ARR) growth of 66% compared to the same period last year. The company thus delivers record quarters in terms of turnover and sales.
Sheth has served on the boards of several technology-based companies and has worked for several non-profit organizations, including St. Louis Arch Grants and St. Louis Equity in Entrepreneurship Collective. He then served as CEO of Label Insight, a B2B SaaS company he co-founded and which was acquired by NielsenIQ.
“Pricing is critical for any business, especially in the current market where volatility, inflation and supply chain issues have become normal,” says Sheth. “I look forward to continuing our impressive growth trajectory by helping clients digitally transform their pricing function to maximize margins, grow profits and close better deals.”

“It has been an honor to found and lead Pricefx from the beginning and I am grateful to have had the opportunity to work with such talented and passionate colleagues,” said Cichon. “Together we transformed the pricing industry, and now Ronak will bring momentum and experience to high-growth technology companies to lead the next phase of business success. I have worked side by side with Ronak for the past 18 months and have developed a great relationship with him both professionally and personally. I am convinced that his customer-centric philosophy will help take our business to new dimensions.”
