Mr. Egan’s appointment follows ClickHouse’s $350 million Series C funding round , with participation from new and existing investors, which brought the company’s valuation to $6.35 billion. The investment supports the expansion of ClickHouse Cloud, the company’s fully managed service, which has grown by more than 300% over the past year and now serves more than 2,000 customers across a range of industries from fintech and transportation to consumer and healthcare.
In May 2025, ClickHouse held its first user conference, Open House , where organizations such as Tesla, OpenAI, and Anthropic shared how they use ClickHouse to analyze petabytes of data in real time. The event reflected ClickHouse’s growing presence in large-scale, mission-critical production environments.
“I am absolutely thrilled to be working with Kevin again. I have known him for over 20 years, and his proven track record of growing enterprise sales at leading software companies makes him an invaluable addition to the leadership team at our current stage of growth,” said Aaron Katz, CEO of ClickHouse. “He excels at cultivating trusted customer relationships, building world-class teams, and implementing sustainable go-to-market solutions. His expertise is exactly what ClickHouse needs as we continue to grow and scale.”
