The business dude, John started his career on a corporate track, before morphing into a bit of a serial entrepreneur.

Company History
Having studied engineering physics together, the founders took their separate paths.
John moved on to business and law before gravitating towards software.
Mike developed a career on the hardware side before himself returning to software as well. Thirty years later social media brought them together again when John noticed Mike's tweet about having a new business idea.
A year of brainstorming and discarded prototypes later and CornerPortal was finally on its way.
Acquiring angel funding in Q1 2011, CornerPortal is launching its first product in Q2 2011. A second funding round and a full commercial release is anticipated for Q3 2011.
Special thanks go out to the team that made that timeline possible: Dan Gagliardi, Rob Podolski, Ashley Tam, Nathan Petralia, Feier Yu, Mathew Southin, Nick Zou and Igor Sales.
