SANTA CLARA, Calif. - Dec. 19, 2013 - PRLog -- Acrolinx announced today that Kumar Vora has joined the company as CEO. In addition, the company announced the opening of its new US headquarters in San Jose, California.

Vora brings 25 years of experience in the software industry at Oracle, Adobe, Apple, HP, and others. Immediately prior to joining Acrolinx, he served as Entrepreneur in Residence at Foundation Capital, a Silicon Valley venture capital firm.

“With our innovative linguistic technology and impressive customer list, Acrolinx presents an irresistible opportunity,” commented Vora. “We’ve entered an era where companies compete for visibility and customer attention based on the engagement and information value of the content they deliver. As a result, content quality matters more than ever, and Acrolinx plays a leading role in helping our customers elevate themselves above their competitors.”

Acrolinx’s lead investor, Christian Janson-Euterneck, Managing Partner, ViewPoint Capital Partners, said, “Kumar has an impressive track record of building successful products and profitable businesses in companies of all sizes. We see great potential in Acrolinx and believe Kumar is a perfect fit to lead the company to realize its full potential.”

“As one of the founders of Acrolinx,” observed Andrew Bredenkamp, “I couldn’t be happier that Kumar has joined us. We now have an unbeatable blend of Kumar’s executive and strategic leadership, along with the capabilities of our team and our products. The next few years should prove quite exciting.”

With executives in both the U.S. and Europe, Acrolinx now maintains dual headquarters in Berlin, Germany, and new offices in San Jose, California.
