Bob Carlson

Accomplished technology and healthcare executive with over twenty years of experience building and managing organizations to deliver long-term revenue and profit growth. High energy results oriented leader who lead or played a key role on multiple executive teams that successfully translated market needs into corporate strategy and then executed on the product, sales, marketing and client support initiatives needed to drive quantifiable business success. Identified, closed and successfully integrated new incremental revenue sources from acquisitions, third party product sales and reseller relationships. Possess a thorough knowledge of the trends and business opportunities in key technology areas such as SaaS, Healthcare IT, Mobile applications and Artificial Intelligence. I am comfortable working with companies at all stages and types of outside investors, but I am best suited for a company where topline growth is a key objective. I like environments where the exact path to growth and market success might not be fully defined and innovation in sales, marketing, product and other functions are needed to ensure success. Given my many years of involvement with technology companies I can bring value added insight to the technology aspect of almost any business. I enjoy contributing to or leading the development of a company's overall strategy, but I also like ensuring that strategic moves can be executed tactically with the resources available. I have shown successful results in resource constrained environments and also where people, systems and processes needed to be scaled up quickly. I have been fortunate over the years to be involved with many great teams, from IBM's software business to one of the first Software as a Service companies in Healthcare where the founders and I were able to grow it to become the leader in our market. I have worked with great Venture Capital and Private Equity investors and have also been able to invest, advise and participate on the boards of multiple startup and growth stage companies.
