Can be scaled up. \nAbout the speaker\nHenry is a 30-year EDA veteran\, with a strong background in HW\, SW\, Systems design. He has been architect and developer\, as well as executive and CEO in both startups and public companies. Henry combines strong technical\, marketing\, sales\, and executive skills. \nTwo major areas to highlight: \nArchitect and implementor of major industry product successes such as Quickturn Systems’ Palladium\, Xilinx Virtex Series\, Cadence Edge P&R\, Synaptics’ IC Testing methodologies. \nMajor industry marketing successes such as revamping VCS and Motive\, which led to Synopsys acquiring Viewlogic\, and XACT 4.0\, which led to Xilinx acquiring NeoCad. \nThe idea for ThunderPort came to Henry in two parts: the first part in 2008\, when he worked with another startup team on a novel internet technology\, similar to (but way ahead of) WhatsApp. A China-government grant eventually steered the team into another direction. \nThe second part was in 2019\, when Bob\, co-founder\, and I were probing into the emerging crypto markets and were looking for a competitive angle. \nHenry is a natural leader and has a strong ability to understand and translate communications between cross-functional teams\, have teams think outside the box to find solutions\, and achieve buy-in and success with any team\, outward or inward focusing.
