AlphaPoint Technology, a technology holding and software application development company, has appointed James Whelan as Chief Technology Officer (CTO).
With a history of deploying successful Enterprise and Blockchain projects, Mr. Whelan brings more than three decades of software development of enterprise compliance and audit experience to AlphaPoint, where he will oversee the strategic development and technical operations of its enterprise blockchain development platform.
Mr. Whelan, MBA previously served as Senior Product Consultant at Ricoh Americas Corporation and CEO of newLedger Solutions.
AlphaPoint is developing an audit and compliance blockchain Software Asset Management (SAM) solution, which connects software and hardware entitlements to their license and components with the software decision-makers. The blockchain solution collects software license and device information via a non-evasive collection utility that deploys via enterprises login or maintenance procedures.
Gary Macleod, AlphaPoint’s President and CEO said "I am very confident that James will help us drive innovation and sales growth as well as communicate our unique capabilities to our customers and investors. This is an exciting time for our industry and our Company, and AlphaPoint has never been in a better position to lead the way with new products and advanced blockchain technologies. The addition of James as our CTO will only accelerate our positive momentum."
“AlphaPoint is solving a significant problem in SAM, and I’m excited to be leading an incredibly talented technology team that is delivering a definitive blockchain solution for software asset management that will quickly become the de-facto standard for SAM vendors and their customers,” said Whelan. “Our platform will allow our customers to make smarter, faster, better decisions and allows us to accelerate our development efforts to serve an even broader segment of the market in 2019.”
