Glen Mella has been named president and CEO of Found, Inc., which offers web-based systems for retailers. Mella most recently was managing partner of BizCradle LLC, a private investment firm centered on seed-stage technology companies. Before that, he was senior vice president of marketing and business development for TenFold, an enterprise software and services company that provides large-scale e-business applications for Global 2000 customers.
Mella replaces Richard F. Lawson Jr., who had been president for 18 months. The company said Lawson had completed his role of getting the company financed and established. Mella’s job will be to grow the company, says a spokesman.
"We are very excited to have someone of Glen's caliber join the company," said Steve Young, Found's chairman of the board. "Glen's comprehensive experience with multi-billion dollar software and consumer products companies, as well as early-stage technology ventures, makes him the perfect candidate to lead Found through future growth and development."
Mella also has been general manager/vice president of marketing for Novell and vice president of marketing for WordPerfect Corp.
