KUALA LUMPUR: Keysight Technologies Inc, which has a primary manufacturing and order fulfilment site in Malaysia, has completed its US$330 million acquisition of Eggplant from The Carlyle Group.<\/p>\n

Eggplant is a software test automation platform provider that uses artificial intelligence (AI) and analytics to automate test creation and test execution.<\/p>\n

Keysight chairman and chief executive officer Ron Nersesian said the acquisition aligned with its strategy to grow the company’s first-to-market software-centric solutions.<\/p>\n

“We’re thrilled to welcome the Eggplant team to the Keysight family.<\/p>\n

“We look forward to working together in the fast-growing intelligent software test market with differentiated software-as-a-service technologies,” said Nersesian in a statement today.<\/p>\n

Eggplant chief executive officer John Bates will join the Keysight leadership team reporting to Keysight’s Penang-based Electronic Industrial Solutions Group president Soon Chai Gooi.<\/p>\n

Bates said joining Keysight gives Eggplant the ability to scale its intelligent automation platform and reach more organisations across the globe.<\/p>\n

“We share a vision to accelerate innovation and together we will be able to help customers on their digital transformation journey.<\/p>\n

“We’re proud of what we have accomplished through our employees and partners’ contributions, and we are excited about this next chapter,” he added.<\/p>\n

Eggplant had 2019 revenue of US$38 million.<\/p>\n
