Orb Hires SVP

EMERYVILLE, Calif. -- Orb Networks announced today that technology industry veteran Paul Edelhertz joined the company as senior vice president of field operations, a new position where he will be responsible for sales and strategic partnerships. Edelhertz joins the company with more than 23 years experience in building and scaling technology and service businesses. In addition to being CEO of two successful high-tech start-ups, he was most recently senior vice president of field operations for Revenue Science, Inc., a leading provider of behavioral targeting services for the online advertising market.

"Transitioning a company like Orb from start-up to maturity, takes leaders who have done it before and have the relevant experience," said Joe Costello, Chairman and CEO of Orb Networks. "Paul brings us this incredible combination of relevant skills -- he's been a CEO of a start-up twice, an associate partner at Accenture Consulting, led strategic partnerships and run sales organizations -- having someone of Paul's caliber and seniority at the helm to build sales and deliver on customer partnerships as we scale is a real win for us."
