Agile is a massive change agent that is dramatically transforming timeframes, quality and economics of software development. As part of “20 Questions”- an MGI Research Interview Series with leading technology industry innovators, investors, and executives, Andrew Dailey recently conducted an in-depth interview with Bill Portelli, CEO and co-founder of CollabNet, a leading vendor of Agile tools and services. Prior to CollabNet, Bill was Senior VP and GM of Cadence Design Systems’ global consulting business. Since co-founding CollabNet with Tim O’Reilly and Brian Behlendorf (co-founder of the Apache Project), Bill has been at the forefront of collaborative software development tools for global enterprises and the SaaS delivery model.
