Mindshare Technologies president to retire

Hanks (pictured) joined the firm as president and chairman nine years ago. The firm said that it had no plans to appoint a new president at this stage.

Co-founder and CEO John Sperry said: “Rich has been a great partner and friend. Our strengths have complemented each other as we have built this business together. Mindshare will miss his day-to-day leadership as our president, but we consider ourselves fortunate that he will continue on as our senior adviser.”

Hanks added: “I am so grateful to have had the chance to work with such talented and good people… I believe the company is poised for even greater success in the future.”
