An Indelible Mark
With years of experience in tech and private equity, Continuum CEO Michael George spoke with CRN Monday about the news that ConnectWise CEO Arnie Bellini was stepping down as CEO and had sold the company to Thoma Bravo.
George said Bellini poured his heart and soul into creating a thriving company in ConnectWise as well as a community in IT Nation. George said the erstwhile leader has left an indelible mark on an industry he created with a platform that revolutionized how IT is put to work in businesses across the country.
ConnectWise, like Continuum, is now owned by Thoma Bravo, which has a portfolio of 200 tech platforms worth a combined $50 billion. George’s message to ConnectWise’s new management is “Welcome to the family.”
