BOSTON, April 26, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Massachusetts Technology Leadership Council (MassTLC) today announced the appointment of Kate Reynolds McLeod as Interim CEO. McLeod has served as Vice President at MassTLC since 2016 and succeeds departing CEO, Tom Hopcroft, who departs after 17 years with the Council.
“It’s such an exciting time to be part of the Massachusetts tech ecosystem and I am thrilled to be leading an organization whose mission it is to support the companies, people, and innovations that make it all happen,” says McLeod.
Prior to joining MassTLC, McLeod was part of the founding team at ecommerce site The Grommet where she served as Vice President of Discovery.
