Local Start-Up Veteran Tapped to Start-Up Microsoft Office
Posted by David under Boston , Cambridge , Movers & Shakers , Tech
Local start-up veteran Reed Sturtevant will start a new job tomorrow. The veteran of numerous startups has been recruited to start a development office for Microsoft in an example of another West coast firm expanding their footprint in the area to take advantage of the local talent and the young pups being pumped out of schools like MIT.
When I spoke with Reed at the Tastybytes networking event on Thursday, he was excited about the upcoming role but was still working out the details with Microsoft. He was most recently serving as Eons CTO (good timing on the exit) and has quite an impressive record of technology start-ups under his belt including being the managing director at the Boston office for web 1.0 incubator Idealab.
