"His proven track record in forming, funding and growing companies based on university, national laboratory and corporate intellectual property will play a key role in ANGLE's continued growth and expansion," Evans continued.

Dr. Rosenberg will be based in Newton, Massachusetts near the Route 128 technology corridor and within minutes of all the Boston-based research laboratories and universities. He will spearhead ANGLE's efforts to commercialize early-stage technologies in software, semiconductors, communications and other IT technologies and services.
