Kevin Macgillivray joined Eleven in early 2005 and took the reins from founding CEO Josh Friedman. Kevin’s twenty-year record is rooted in Silicon Valley. As CEO of Splash Technology, he led that company’s successful spin-out from Radius in 1995, raising $23 million in venture funding from Summit Partners and Sigma Partners. In less than one year, Kevin led the build-out of Splash’s infrastructure while bringing very successful follow-on products to market, culminating in a successful IPO in 1996 (Nasdaq: SPLH). Over the next five years, Kevin boosted sales to $85 million, acquired two private companies, grew Splash to 180 employees, and successfully positioned the company as the number two player in its industry. Splash was acquired in 2001 by the number one player, Electronics for Imaging (Nasdaq: EFII). At Splash, Kevin led the creation and growth of the worldwide sales and marketing team, from one person to fifty-five in fourteen countries. Also, he was the principal architect developing the company’s differentiation and positioning strategy. Prior to the spin-out of Splash, Kevin was VP, GM of the $130 million publishing division of Radius. Before Radius, Kevin enjoyed ten fast-tracked years at Océ, starting as product manager, including two years stationed in Europe, and ending as GM of Océ Graphics USA, the $15 million North American field operation of the Océ graphics peripherals division. Kevin holds a B.S. degree in mechanical engineering from Stanford. |
