An aerospace student escaped the laws of physics, arrived too early for mobile, and found his lasting idea in a technology everyone else considered finished. After 15 years as Movable Ink’s CEO, his latest act is making room for the company to outgrow him.

Before she sold cognitive banking, Alison Lindland produced Off-Off Broadway theater, launched an early iPhone app and spent 13 years growing with one startup. The connecting idea is simple: technology matters when people can see themselves in it.

He walked into Movable Ink in 2013 when it had fewer than 15 employees. Thirteen years later, he is running it.
