"Recently StreamBase has emerged as the leading CEP platform in the Capital Markets, with new customers like CME Group (@cmegroup), RBC Securities, Bank New York ConvergEx, BlueCrest and Phase Capital. Helping customers like these innovate and grow is a challenge I look forward to."

Sutherland's experience includes Director of IT at Salomon Brothers, Managing Director of Technology at UBS [NYSE:UBS], and JPMorgan [NYSE:JPM], where he supported back and middle offices for the Equity, Fixed Income and Emerging Markets businesses across all geographies.
