“My experiences working with large organizations such as Wachovia, Bank of America and AT&T have led me to understand the critical need for virtualization and the potential that Embotics’ V-Commander provides for the industry,” said Kurtz. “Embotics is developing the technology and the reputation for being on the leading edge of virtualization management and I welcome the chance to take advantage of this high-growth business opportunity in the U.S. market.”
