I was the founding CEO of ac3 in 2000. Initially the focus was on supporting researchers through the provision of supercomputing services, but the scope expanded to the more general roles of co-location, managed services and more recently cloud-based services. I successfully led the company through the start-up phase, achieving a maiden profit in 2007, with each of the successive years being profitable.
