Marlin & Associates ("M&A"), the boutique investment bank,
announced that Institutional Investor ("II"), the international
publisher focused primarily on international finance, has named
M&A's Founding Partner, Ken Marlin, as one of II's Tech 50,
which this year honors the 50 most "disruptive" figures in the
financial technology sector.
II calls these 50 people disrupters because they're changing the
way Wall Street does business. See the article here:
The-Disrupters-Institutional-Investors-Tech-50. Other "Disrupters"
named include: Reto Francioni and Duncan Niederauer, CEOs of
Deutsche Börse and the NYSE Euronext; Joe Ratterman, President and
CEO of BATS Global Markets; Robert Greifeld, CEO Nasdaq OMX; Seth
Merrin, CEO Liquidnet; Michael Spencer, CEO of ICAP; Lázaro Campos,
CEO SWIFT; and Charles Marston, Chairman and CEO of Calypso
Technology. (See the full ranking, with profiles, here.)
The II Tech 50 members are selected by the editors and staff of
Institutional Investor, with nominations and other input from
industry experts. According to II: "'Disruptive' is the operative
word, and it is a thread running through the Tech 50. The idea
harks back to The Innovator's Dilemma, a 1997 book by Harvard
Business School professor Clayton Christensen that explained how
long-entrenched, industry-leading companies can fail to anticipate
disruptive technologies or seize the opportunities they
present."
Of Marlin & Associates, Institutional Investor said: "The
firm's growing list of deals is a chronicle of technology's
evolution and globalization -- in health care and information
technology as well as finance... "
