Today on Up In Your Business with Kerry McCoy we're looking back on my interview with Charles Morgan, the founder, chairman and CEO, from 1972 – 2008, of Acxiom, the pioneering and leading data base company headquartered in Central Arkansas. An extraordinary entrepreneur and visionary, he is also really fun, outspoken, and a racecar driver.
While many of his colleagues have retired, he is going strong with his newest company, First Orion, a consumer protection app for phone privacy. If you have a T-Mobil device, than you are using his technology.
These days, Charles serves on the board of INUVO, a publicly traded, technology company for internet advertisers, and more recently released his second book Now What which follows his tell-all-book, Matters of Life and Data.
Listen to find out how this IBM engineer turned his company from a 25 employee start-up to a publicly-traded, billion-dollar tech giant in just 30 years, and managed to become an author, race car driver and so much more along the way.
