in/PACT Expands Leadership Team with Former Managing Director of LinkedIn Europe, Kevin Eyres, Joining as CEO
SAN FRANCISCO, March 16, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Purpose activation platform in/PACT has announced that Advisory Board member and former Managing Director of LinkedIn Europe, Kevin Eyres, has joined the leadership team as CEO. John McNeel, in/PACT Now's Co Founder and CEO, has assumed the role of Chief Brand Officer, working closely with Eyres in expanding the company's footprint across the industry.
While at LinkedIn, Eyres led the hyper growth strategy of the European division, taking them from first employee outside of the US to IPO in under four years, as well as expanding their commercial operations across six different countries. In addition to LinkedIn, Kevin brings with him a wealth of senior leadership experience in technology companies such as Side Step (acquired by Kayak), AltaVista, Shopping.com and Compaq Computers. Kevin also holds board positions with companies such as KIPP, Essential Analytics and Hot Topics, while also mentoring CEOs on hyper growth and conscious leadership around the globe.
in/PACT was launched in 2015 as a marketing technology platform that allows brands and consumers to interact with each other through "people-empowered giving," bringing customized social good incentives into the heart of customer rewards, e-commerce, event activations and more. With Eyres joining as CEO, the company will double down on developing world class customer giving experiences that brands and event organizers everywhere can offer to their customers.
"For the past several years, I have been mentoring other CEOs on hyper growth and how to do this through conscious leadership," says Eyres. "When I came across in/PACT, I knew it was a chance to not only build another hyper growth company, but to be a part of an organization that is doing well by doing good."
"We are so excited to have Kevin join us during this critical period of exponential growth," says McNeel. "I look forward to continuing my efforts in evangelizing the brand and supporting Kevin strategically as we move forward. His leadership experience in growing operational teams in the global technology space is unparalleled and his passion for purpose is contagious."
With the appointment of Eyres, in/PACT officially establishes its presence in the tech hub of San Francisco, enabling access to resources and technology partners to facilitate its hyper growth goals.
