2008
Double Fusion announced some changes in its management today with some added responsibilities for one employee and also two new hires.
Julie Shumaker, Double Fusion’s current Senior Vice President of Sales and Marketing, will now be overseeing Double Fusion’s newly formed Core Games Group as its GM. Shumaker will now be overseeing publisher partnerships across Double Fusion’s core video game segment.
Glen Sussman, formerly CFO and COO of GameTrust, has joined the Double Fusion team as Chief Financial Officer; and Joshua Larson, former Vice President of Games at CNET Networks, has been brought on as the Vice President of Business Development.
On a side note: Yikes on some of the press release content. Not sure how this one slipped past the proofreading stations at Business Wire, Double Fusion, or Forty Seven Communications but-
“Sussman is coming on as CEO of Double Fusion just as the company embarks upon a double-digit revenue growth and multi-year expansion.”
You have to feel bad for Jonathan Epstein, CEO of Double Fusion with all his nice comments on the new hires.
“Julie, Josh and Glen all have unique and diverse backgrounds, but traits they all share are a love of games and a history of strong results and success in their prior roles,” says Jonathan Epstein, Double Fusion’s President and CEO. “Double Fusion prides itself on its world class technology, but it is our stellar team that brings the experience and dedication that has propelled Double Fusion to its status as the leading independent in the sector.”
Little does he know that he is actually being replaced…
Just be glad that they are not a public company, that might have made for some interesting stock changes for the day…
