Algoworks launches as global artificial intelligence (AI), engineering services and experience transformation leader
“In an era where AI is reshaping everything, we help clients navigate complexity with clarity, delivering results via technology transformation that’s not just digital, but deeply human,” said Derek Harrar, CEO of Algoworks, who was appointed to lead the newly combined company. “This approach is adding value to an increasing portfolio of large enterprise clients, evidenced by the record growth we’re seeing across all our practices in 2025.”
Trivest selected Harrar to integrate and lead the new company as CEO based on his extensive experience scaling and driving operations in PE-backed software and services companies. This role is Harrar’s fourth CEO position. He previously ran Comcast’s $19 billion video division as its general manager, served as operating partner at two PE firms, founded two VC-backed startups and has served on a number of public- and PE-backed, technology-company boards. Harrar’s career began as an investment banker with Morgan Stanley.
