Welcome Lu Silverstein! – Bye, Bye old Role.

Lu Silverstein will be officially joining IdentityMine today as our SVP of Products and Services. Wait a second… that’s my role.

Thus far I’ve been focused on the delivery side of the IdentityMine products and services business. Since officially taking the role of SVP of Products and Service back in early 2007 we’ve shipped three product offerings under the blendables brand and have several service offerings in the WPF, Silverlight and Surface space. However, as these emerging technology ecosystems grow, so must our ability to deliver.

Lu Silverstein has been part of Surface Computing at Microsoft Corp. since September 2003. Silverstein has worked with Microsoft for ten years on a variety of new-category products. His experience growing teams at Microsoft will be invaluable to IdentityMine as we move to take our business to the next level. Again, welcome Lu!

What will I be doing? IdentityMine does some amazingly fantastic things. The problem is… Very few know about it. In addition, we need to transition from an “order taking” to “self directed” company. Meaning - thus far we have yet to build a sales team which targets industries and associated customers that are ideal for our offerings and objectives. Thankfully, as of today we have a long list of very relevant customers. However, as the ecosystem grows it will make sense to be strategic about where we focus our delivery mechanism.

In my new role as SVP of Sales and Marking it will be my responsibility to make the above adjustments. Although today is my first official day on the job, in the background I have been working with Kurt Brockett (Director of UX Evangelism) and Craig Jaris (Director of Business Development) for the last couple months on these new challenges. Come see us at PDC 2008 and be sure to monitor identitymine.com to see how these new initiatives surface.
