Matt Mosman

I am the founder and Managing Director of College Heights Partners, a consulting firm aimed at helping small- and mid-cap technology companies with both buy- and sell-side mergers and acquisitions. The firm has done well, successfully marketing Attensity (acquired by the German firm Empolis), and Silver Creek Systems (acquired by Oracle) within its first year of existence.

Previously, I was Vice President of Corporate Development at MEMC/SunEdison, one of the largest semiconductor / solar manufacturers and developers. I was responsible for the company's mergers and acquisitions, including the acquisitions of companies such as Korean tracker manufacturer OSolar and U.S. solar panel manufacturer Greenray. I also handled the company's spin-offs, joint ventures and monetization efforts for MEMC technologies.

Prior to joining MEMC, I was Chief Executive Officer at iCiX, a leading developer of web-based software for managing compliance with safety standards for food companies and large retailers. Revenues more than doubled in a little over 2 years, and iCiX added such marquee customers as Walmart, Macy's, Lowe's, and Target during my tenure there.

I was the CEO of Levanta, Inc., a vendor of Linux management appliances, and of Cerberian, makers of the world's first Internet Access Control web-based service. Levanta won "Most Innovative Hardware" at the 2005 San Francisco Linuxworld Exposition, and was named as one of Red Herring's "Hottest Private Companies in America" for 2005. Both companies saw their bookings increase by in excess of 400%. Cerberian was acquired by Blue Coat Systems (NASDAQ: BCSI).

For six years I held pivotal roles at Oracle Corporation, culminating in my service as Senior Vice President of Corporate Development. At Oracle I was responsible for corporate development, mergers and acquisitions, joint ventures, spin-offs, technology licensing and for the Oracle Venture Fund, a $500 million investment fund. I also served on Oracle's Product Development Management Committee and on the company's Investment Committee.

I have been a frequent lecturer on topics relating to corporate strategy at colleges and universities, including MIT, Harvard (Alumni Association), and Cambridge University (U.K.). I have also been featured in articles in the Wall Street Journal and in Fortune Magazine.

I have a Bachelor's degree in English Literature and a Master's of Business Administration from Brigham Young University.
