Hi everyone! I just wanted to make a quick post to say a few things about my new role as CEO of SilverStripe.
First, I do want to thank all the people in and around SilverStripe for making the product and the company what it is today. The founders and the rest of the staff of SilverStripe have done an amazing job to get the product where it is today whilst creating awesome websites for our clients. In fact, it's really the other way around: the work we do for our clients takes first priority and the SilverStripe CMS allows us to create better sites for our clients. And of course a big thanks goes out to the developer community and our Google Summer of Code students who all contribute to the SilverStripe product and community in numerous ways.

Today I’m thrilled to announce we have a new CEO here at SilverStripe. Brian Calhoun has been appointed as my successor as the new CEO of the company. With nearly two decades of experience in software companies under his belt (primarily gained in Silicon Valley), and having demonstrated clear leadership, management, and technical expertise, Brian was the obvious choice for appointment to this role.
The appointment also marks a new era in SilverStripe in more way than one. Over the past year, SilverStripe has continued to enjoy strong growth, both as a company (being ranked in the top 500 fastest growing IT companies in the Asia Pacific Region) and with our product, the SilverStripe CMS, which has been voted as being one of the top 5 new content management systems in the world. As a result of this growth, a number of new opportunities for the company have been created which I’m dedicating my time to pursuing under the title of Business Development Director. I’ll be posting more about this in the next few weeks.
