Roseman out as CEO of Evri, but retains ties to Paul Allen's Vulcan
Neil Roseman is out as CEO of Evri, the Paul Allen-backed startup that helps readers discover related content on Web sites such as The Washington Post, The Times of London and TechFlash. The move comes four months after Evri -- backed with $8 million from Allen's Vulcan Ventures -- laid off a quarter of its staff.
The new CEO is Will Hunsinger, the former CEO of online advertising company Adeze and a former entrepreneur-in-residence at Seattle's Maveron. He also previously held executive positions at the Gap Online where he managed business operations for the online retailer. Before that, he worked at Overture Services.
Roseman -- who joined the Seattle startup from Amazon.com in 2007 -- plans to stay on board during the transition and remain a part of the company's advisory board. Roseman plans to return to Vulcan as an entrepreneur-in-residence with the goal of uncovering "new early-stage consumer Web opportunities."
"We are very excited to welcome
Hall also said that the firm is excited to have Roseman working with Vulcan as an EIR.
