Welcome to Episode 41 of The VentureFizz Podcast, the flagship podcast of your most-trusted source for startup and tech jobs, news, and insights!

For this episode of our podcast, I interviewed Mike Sullivan, CEO of Acquia.

Mike is an entrepreneur who co-founded an early SaaS company called Steelpoint Technologies, a provider of high-end electronic discovery solutions that was later acquired.

If you are not familiar with Acquia, they are one of the anchor companies in the Boston tech scene, known for helping companies create digital experiences. They have a global presence with about 800 employees.

In this episode, we cover:

-The details on Steelpoint, and how the company moved from a services business to a productized solution

-His decision to join Acquia, and his partnership with Dries Buytaert, Acquia’s Chairman, CTO and Co-Founder

-The current state of Acquia, and their strategy moving forward (which could include making acquisitions)
