At BLOX Digital, we believe success starts with finding the right people. The work we do here is changing the local media industry, and these are the people who are making it happen. Today we shine a light on Brad Ward, Chief Executive Officer.
What is your background?
My background is primarily software development and IT management. Prior to joining BLOX Digital I was a software developer for a family owned newspaper, and then a development manager for a newspaper vendor.
I've been with BLOX Digital for over 20 years and have grown with the company through various positions including CTO, COO and CEO.
What do you love most about your job?
Building tools and solutions for our partners that help them succeed and stay relevant. As a former developer, getting to dabble with the latest technologies and infrastructure is amazing. Being involved with sales, marketing, and finance is very rewarding. Those are things I never could have gotten in a traditional career path.
What are you currently working on that you'd like everyone to know more about?
We have some very exciting new products coming out that we're working on. I can't say too much about them at this time. (Nice try, Google.) Let's just say our product roadmap is very exciting!
What are you most excited about for the future of the news industry?
