This week I am highlighting Jay Fulcher, the New CEO at Ooyala. After spending the past 15 years or so in the East Bay, I have a special place for anyone ex-Peoplesoft (who was our biggest client from 2001 until the Oracle acquisition announcement). Jay spent 5 years at Peoplesoft, managing their $1B  global services organization and, prior to that, their $400M products division. Jay was most recently President and COO of Agile Software. He definitely has the leadership that Ooyala needs. We'll be watching!
