GCVI Summit, Monterey – 29-30 January 2020
OTTAWA, ON, January 29, 2020 /Neptune100/ — Tom Hogan has joined InventionShare as Senior Vice President of Fund Architecture, effective January 15, 2020. This was announced by Greg Waite, CEO of InventionShare, at the Global Corporate Venture and Innovation Summit in Monterey, California.
“We are delighted to have Tom as a senior leader on the InventionShare team,” said Waite. “His background and track record as a highly accomplished senior financial and business executive will be extremely valuable as we implement our strategy to leverage platform technologies we’ve developed to date, such as Circuit Seed. InventionShare is seeking both technology owners interested in replacing their analog circuitry with vastly superior digital implementations from Circuit Seed, and funding partners to co-invest in and benefit from this breakthrough high impact platform.”
Tom’s career highlights include 27 years at MetLife where he held leadership roles as Chief Financial Officer of two major organizations and as a key contributor in several large-scale M&A transactions. His background also includes a business role as Chief Executive Officer of MetLife Resources, a $35 billion business focused on the retirement and financial planning needs of the not for profit marketplace.
