Chad Gates
Managing Director and Director in Forest Hill, Victoria
Joined Pronto Software, the mid market ERP software leader in Australia in 2005 after a 20 year career in the Retail industry, including over 5 years at the Australian Retailers Association. I am Pronto's MD and am privileged to be part of such a great company that lives by its values.
I've always had a technology bent (even in the early days of retail) and have focused on systems and retail operations, as well as being a bit "out there" in retail life (Daimaru Melbourne, World 4 Kids).
On the home front I'm the fixer of broken stuff (from computers to chicken houses), and have three fantastic (and totally crazy) kids. I'm also more than a little bit fond of gaming because growing up is optional. In the last couple of years have become a perpetual gym junkie.
Yes, I AM related to Bill Gates - he was my grandfather and I miss him a great deal.
