Stephen Lavin
Managing Partner, Fortium Partners
I have reached an arc in my career when I want to give back more to our community's technology and product areas—specifically new businesses and younger entrepreneurs. I am the former CTO of Redbox and, prior to that, the technology leader at Coinstar, ecoATM, Gazelle, and a number of other automated retail businesses. I have serial product development experience from ideation to MVP and the grave for mid-market to large. Sales engineering, sales, business communications, networking, and relationship building with stakeholders, shareholders, internal colleagues, and peers, including the Board of Directors. The bottom line is that working with young people on a mission is a lot of fun for me, and if I can help them optimize and be efficient about some things and benefit from lessons learned, then I want to help.
