In 1H'21 bookings more than quadrupled compared to the same period a year ago continuing o9's strong growth momentum. New clients accounted for 85% of overall bookings in Q2'21, with over 90% coming from large enterprises with multi-billion dollar revenues. Expansions at existing clients accounted for the majority of the remaining bookings highlighting the value add of o9's platform. Bookings growth was diversified across o9's core verticals of retail, brand manufacturing, industrial manufacturing and supply manufacturing.
