CCC APPOINTS SOFTWARE INDUSTRY VETERAN SHIVANI GOVIL AS

CHIEF PRODUCT OFFICER

A Seasoned Executive In Enterprise SaaS and AI Technology, Govil Joins CCC to

Drive Product Innovation for the P&C Insurance Industry Technology Leader

CHICAGO – March 15, 2021 – CCC Information Services Inc. (CCC), a leading SaaS platform for the P&C insurance economy, strengthens its executive team by adding Shivani Govil as Chief Product Officer. Govil will lead the company’s product strategy, product management, and marketing functions and advance the company’s strategic vision of delivering AI, IoT, customer experience, and network management solutions. The CCC Cloud connects 30,000 businesses across the multi-trillion-dollar P&C insurance economy including insurers, automakers, collision repairers, lenders, and more.

In February of this year, CCC announced plans to go public through a special purpose acquisition company (SPAC) merger deal with Dragoneer Growth Opportunities Corp., which valued CCC at approximately $7 billion. The company expects that certain proceeds from that transaction will be used to help fund software research and development. Shivani joins CCC at a time when technology is increasingly being applied to speed up and improve the auto claims experience for millions of policyholders annually.

“The scale of our network and speed of innovation drive our clients’ digital transformation objectives,” said CCC Chairman and CEO Githesh Ramamurthy. “Shivani is a world-class executive who brings strong expertise in leading large-scale product innovation and delivery. Her proven track record of supporting digital transformation across industries will play an important role in driving the success of CCC and our clients as we enter an exciting new phase of growth.”
