Bio
Bassam is an Egyptian-born American living in the mountain town of Park City, Utah, home of the 2002 Winter Olympic Games. He is in love with his family, has been “trying” to CrossFit for years, is a lousy skier and average mountain-biker, but spends every day trying to get better.
He is Chief Business Officer at inContact (NASDAQ: SAAS), the largest provider of cloud contact center software and infrastructure solutions, where he has been instrumental in the company’s growth to over $125M in revenue run rate. Over his 3-year tenure with the company, its market cap has quadrupled to $400M.
Bassam has spent nearly twenty-five years in technology with companies such as Omniture (acquired by Adobe during his five-year tenure), Siebel Systems (acquired by Oracle), and IBM (not yet acquired ).
He started young, entering high school at age 12, programming professionally at age 15, and completing his first Masters degree at age 21. He holds BS, MS, and MPhil degrees in Computer Science as well as an MBA from the University of Utah.
