Bobbi Gibb Art | Making Art, Making History, Paying it Forward
Bobbi Gibb was the first woman to run and win the Boston Marathon in 1966 and repeated her wins in 1967, and 1968. In addition to her Marathon fame, Bobbi is also an accomplished artist. However, like many artists, she was not able to keep up with the dramatic changes in “arts marketing” needed to keep her work in the public eye and available commercially. Bobbi was often given media opportunities as a running champion and for her role in changing women’s athletic history, but never made her living as an athlete. She occasionally sold artwork, but did not have a regular way to engage in this As 2016 approached, I approached Bobbi to see if she would like to work on three important initiatives – (1) To properly celebrate her 50th Anniversary as a Marathon pioneer and (2) Fully leverage the opportunity to put her artwork in the forefront; and (3) To identify and initiate a project to mark the important place in history represented by her run. This would become the Bobbi Gibb Marathon Sculpture Project – the opportunity to have Bobbi sculpt the first life-size statue of a female runner on the Boston Marathon course.

North Bridge Venture Partners: Future of Cloud Computing
Boston-based North Bridge and former North Bridge Growth Equity [re-branded GuidePost] actively partner with founders and entrepreneurs providing seed-to-growth financing for innovative companies looking to disrupt and reinvent big markets. The firm funded more than 170 companies creating many billions in market value. Among those firms are Acquia, Actifio, Cool Planet, Couchbase, Demandware, Mavenir Systems, Proto Labs, Reval and Starent Networks.
The Future of Cloud Computing thought leadership program was launched in 2010 by North Bridge with Gigaom Research as a key partner. 2016 was the 6th and final year for North Bridge’s leadership of this study. Its corollary program, the Future of Open Source program ran for 10 years and was then continued under a new brand, Black Duck 360.
The 2016 study was the largest ever and the program represents the industry’s deepest and broadest examination of the cloud technology revolution. It analyzed the inhibitors and drivers behind cloud adoption, separating the hype surrounding the cloud from genuine industry trends and real world cases across a sample of over 1,350 respondents, 60% of which were users and 20% from companies over 5000 employees. The program was vendor-agnostic and supported by cloud companies large and small. The final Webcast hosted by Silicon Angle (Wikibon) featured Stu Miniman, Holly Maloney McConnell, and Paul Gillin.

North Bridge Venture Partners: Future of Open Source
Boston-based North Bridge (as of 2017 North Bridge Growth Equity re-branded as GuidePost) were active partners with entrepreneurs providing seed-to-growth financing for innovative companies looking to disrupt big markets. The firm funded more than 200 companies creating many billions in market value.
Program Overview: Over the course of its ten year history, The Future of Open Source program, has examined the issues and challenges facing CEO’s and CIO’s as Open Source evolved from a developer-centric toolkit to a business imperative.
The North Bridge led program examined the increased strategic role that open source plays in today’s enterprises, its crucial function within new technology development, and the growth of both first-time developers within the OSS community and the impact open source has in daily life. It also sought to predict where open source was headed and what are the emerging threads that are likely to become major trends in the future. The program engaged Black Duck as a partner in year five, and Forrester Research and contributing advisors from the North Bridge portfolio. In 2017, when North Bridge re-organized, Black Duck re-launched the study as a BlackDuck 360 Program.
