“I’m thrilled to be joining Billtrust at such an exciting and pivotal time for finance teams beginning to embrace generative AI to reduce friction in accounts receivable,” commented Polak. “Billtrust is an exciting company, and I look forward to partnering with our leadership team to enhance their ability to optimize B2B payments and digitize accounts receivable for their global customers. The legal and compliance team I’ve joined focuses on client contracts, transactions, and regulatory aspects related to AI, data protection, and cybersecurity. We strive to help the company achieve its business objectives. What is especially exciting for me is that our team includes legal and compliance professionals from the US, the Netherlands, and Poland. We work on international projects across many jurisdictions, enhancing innovative technologies.”
