MINDJET HIRES NEW VICE PRESIDENT OF THE AMERICAS TO HELP LAUNCH PRODUCTIVITY REVOLUTION

London ¿ 26 March, 2009 ¿ Mindjet®, the leading provider of mind mapping and visual collaboration solutions, today announced the appointment of Greg Brown as Vice President, Americas. Brown brings more than 15 years of sales and management experience to Mindjet, where his expertise addressing significant business productivity pain points will help launch a productivity revolution and propel the company¿s next wave of growth providing on-demand visual collaboration solutions. In North and South America, Brown will lead Mindjet¿s effort helping businesses and their employees save time and money in the midst of the most challenging global economy in a generation.

Before PivotLink, Brown spent almost eight years helping to build WebEx Communications, the leader in on-demand collaborative applications, into one of the largest Software as a Service (SaaS) companies in the world. At Webex, Brown held various executive-level positions and was most recently responsible for Sales & Alliances in Europe, the Middle East, and Africa, where he grew the business from $13 million in revenue to more than $40 million in two years. Prior to WebEx, Brown was Vice President of Sales for Pulse Technologies, where he was responsible for the successful development, launch, and execution of the company's sales program. Greg earned a bachelor's degree in marketing from California Polytechnic State University.
