Here’s an announcement from the UW Provost’s office that will certainly be of interest to the business and economic development community in the Puget Sound and Washington State.

Linden Rhoads, a veteran executive in the Seattle high tech community will become Vice Provost for UW Technology Transfer, effective August 14.  Ms. Rhoads co-founded or served as an active director and/or interim CEO of a number of locally successful start-up companies.  She is a graduate of Smith College and the UW Law School.  She has also served on the board of the Washington Technology Center, the Dean’s Advisory Board at the UW Law School and other UW capital campaign committees.

Linden Rhoads replaces Jim Severson who recently stepped down from the position to take a job with a local technology company.
