MICHAEL N. FRUMKIN has served on our Board since June 2020. Mr. Frumkin has more than 25 years of experience in technical and management leadership roles in fast-growth, high-performance technology companies, including Silicon Valley icons like NeXT and Google. He was responsible for critical engineering functions at Verity, Excite, and Google, all of whom went from startup to successful IPOs during his tenure. In 1995, he joined a small 10 person startup that built one of the first full scale commercial internet search engines that eventually became Excite@Home, a multi-billion dollar public company. In his tenure at Excite, Mr. Frumkin was responsible for core company functions like web crawl and e-commerce engineering. After Excite, Mr. Frumkin spent several years as the Chief Technology Officer of Gamechange, the seed stage collaboration between Accenture Technology Ventures and Softbank Venture Capital, where he was responsible for technical due diligence and providing management guidance to portfolio companies. In 2002, pursuing a desire to go back to his more technical distributed computing roots, he joined 23 Google where his responsibilities ranged from managing large engineering teams responsible for most of Google s revenue, to overseeing critical internal software infrastructure projects. At various points in time, he was responsible for the engineering teams building and operating AdWords and the initial launch of AdSense, and the building of Google s personalization infrastructure. In 2012, Mr. Frumkin founded the Google Accelerated Science research team within Google Research. This team worked with leading scientific institutions and universities around the world to increase the pace of discovery in important scientific research by bringing Google s expertise in machine intelligence and machine perception to bear on fundamental science problems. Mr. Frumkin retired from Google in 2023. Mr. Frumkin holds Bachelor of Science and Master of Science degrees in Computer Science and Engineering from MIT. The Board considers as particularly valuable Mr. Frumkin s technical and engineering expertise and demonstrated success in applying that knowledge across a variety of high-growth technology companies.
