Christopher Lien Is The CEO And Founder of Marin Software!
The tech sector finds many people with exceptional skills able to apply those skills in uncommon ways. While many other industries are run in a way that is heavily dependent upon specific training and certifications, the tech sector abounds with success stories from people who have great ideas and strong business acumen who surround themselves with teams that make their visions possible. While some executives in the tech sector have an amazing technical sense or idea, other companies spring up and find success out of applying a great business model to someone else’s innovation. As CEO and Founder of Marin Software, Christopher Lien has found a way to make his business savvy profitable throughout the tech sector.
Christopher Lien is, above all other things, a businessman. His training and experience have led him to several successful positions in business and in the tech sector. With all his experience, though, Lien found there was a niche not being filled by the tech sector and he created Marin Software to fill that niche. Marin Software is a paid search marketer and when Lien conceived the idea, he had the business wherewithal to follow it through. After hiring a team of world-class software engineers to execute his vision, Marin Software made an impressive debut in the tech sector in 2006. Christopher Lien has been at the head of the company ever since!
After enrolling in Dartmouth College in 1984, Christopher Lien found his options to be virtually limitless. As an undergraduate, he worked hard and earned the grades needed to be in the Phi Beta Kappa society. He graduated in 1988 with Bachelor’s of Arts degrees in Government and Spanish. Graduating magna cum laude, Christopher Lien was unsure what to do with his degrees. In 1991, Lien was accepted into the prestigious Stanford University Graduate School Of Business! Two years later, he graduated with him MBA and a sense of focus that led him to pursue a career as an entrepreneur.
As a Managing Director of Evercore Partners, Christopher Lien built a record of success for himself. His accomplishments in the financial market made him an impressive hire for K-Mart. K-Mart needed Christopher Lien to build the company’s online presence. As the Acting CEO, Chief Operating Officer, and Chief Financial Officer of BlueLight.com, Christopher Lien helped raise more than $142 million in financing for the spin-off site. While the site was later re-absorbed by K-Mart and kmart.com, Lien made a remarkably successful venture for K-Mart with BlueLight.com.
In 2001, Christopher Lien created his first business, Sugar Media. As the Founder, CEO and CFO of his own company, he created a company that offered a revolutionary new broadband platform. The audacious design and concept was enough to draw the attention of 2Wire, which bought Lien’s company. After a year and a third as Chief Operating Officer of Adteractive, Christopher Lien decided to try his hand at his own business again and Marin Software was born!
Navigating the business world well makes Christopher Lien uniquely suited to market to enterprise customers and as Founder and CEO of Marin Software, that is exactly what he is doing.
