President and CEO

“One of the reasons I joined Primus was because it had investors such as Norwest Venture Partners. NVP is considered to have a very good eye for backing market-leading technology companies, even when they are well ahead of the market curve. NVP also has a reputation for supporting and working with its portfolio companies even after the IPO."
