CALABRIO INTRODUCES FIRST SVP OF CORPORATE DEVELOPMENT TO CAPITALIZE ON GROWTH AND MARKET OPPORTUNITY

New executive, Tim Klein, brings more than 25 years of combined business development and financial experience to the Calabrio leadership team

Minneapolis, MN — November 9, 2021 — Calabrio, the customer experience intelligence company, welcomes Tim Klein as Calabrio’s first Senior Vice President of Corporate Development. Klein brings decades of knowledge in corporate development, mergers and acquisitions, investment banking and finance. This executive recruitment will enable Calabrio to further capitalize on sustained growth and seize new market opportunities.

In the role of SVP of Corporate Development, Klein will drive meaningful change in Calabrio’s business operations through inorganic and organic growth opportunities. With more than 25 years of experience in corporate development, mergers and acquisitions, investment banking and finance, Klein brings a long history of strategic advisory success to Calabrio–having seen transactions from every perspective in his varied roles. Prior to joining Calabrio, Klein was an early member of Lake Street Capital Markets; he also led the Corporate Development Group at Kroll Inc, a billion-dollar subsidiary of MMC.

“Tim brings invaluable experience in business development to Calabrio. Following our recent success in uniting brands, teams and products to best serve our customers and employees, Tim will continue this ambitious, thoughtful journey of expansions and partnerships,” said Tom Goodmanson, president and CEO of Calabrio.

Klein was drawn to Calabrio for the success it has realized through its people-first mission. Calabrio has always embraced employee-centricity in its business and customer operations and these values have led Calabrio to accelerate its business growth during 2020 and 2021.

“Calabrio is in a strong position to expand its role in the market, and I’m passionate about opportunities like this where a strong team is in place. Maximizing corporate development is more about the people than the numbers,” said Klein. “It’s about finding the right partners and the right teams where we can bring people together to create incremental positive change. I’m excited to be working with a company that puts people first in every way possible because that allows us to best flex our corporate-development muscle.”

Welcome

The vision behind everything in Futurum’s Custom Research practice is this: research should show you what is happening, what comes next, and what to do about it. It should be personal to each audience, easy for people to grasp, and structured so LLMs can reason over it accurately. And it should be fast and turnkey; you want answers now, not another project to carry for quarters.

Whether you are defining business, channel, or go-to-market strategy; evaluating vendors or justifying ROI; or commissioning research to fill an emerging market need, we have your back, with a program that answers your questions with the objectivity and credibility to drive real decisions.

To do it, we bring unmatched data to bear: Futurum research, surveys, and market projections; validated market feeds; ETR’s 15 years of insight from 10,000 technology decision-makers; G2’s buyer and user data; and what our analysts hear every day. Add leading primary collection, from AI-moderated voice interviews to surveys and analyst-led interviews, all turnkey, and every project comes out credible, nuanced, and actionable.

And we don’t just drop the results in your lap. For internal work, we provide analyst-led sessions, interactive dashboards, and a range of formats. For market-facing work, Futurum delivers turnkey activation and amplification that actually gets seen, by people and by LLMs, through our media and share of voice. This is research that moves decisions and markets.

We will meet you wherever you are, from a fast-turn brief to a multi-year program, and shape the work to your goals, timeline, and budget. The right program for your moment.

If any of this is useful, I would love to talk.
