Company founders

Michael Vetsch

From 1999 through May 2006 Michael was employed at MathWorks' headquarters in Boston as Development Manager for MathWorks' real-time rapid-prototyping products, namely xPC Target. During this time, Michael initiated and grew the xPC Target development group and was heavily involved in the world-wide marketing, sales, and application engineering activities for this product. For the design and development of MathWorks' only hardware product, the xPC TargetBox®, Michael played the leading role. In the period from 1994 to 1999 Michael founded two high-tech companies in the domain of real-time computing products and services of which both where eventually acquired by MathWorks end of 1998. At those companies Michael and his colleagues developed, beside other products, the forerunner of xPC Target, which was the main reason for MathWorks' acquisition of those companies. Michael can be seen as the original author of xPC Target. Before that time, Michael worked at various technical universities as a lecturer and researcher in the domain of control systems, simulation techniques, and real-time computing. With his large experience in forming high-tech companies, general computer science, technical computing, and real-time systems, Michael acts as Speedgoat's CEO and VP of Engineering.

Martin Stoller

From 2001 through December 2007, Martin was employed at MathWorks in Switzerland. Starting from October 2005, he was responsible for all local Marketing programs and has previous experience in finance, risk management, and social security. Martin has a university degree in economics, with a specialization in Marketing and Human Resources. With his experience in marketing, operations, and finance, Martin acts as Speedgoat's VP of Sales and Marketing.

Reto Albertini

From 2000 through August 2006, Reto was employed at MathWorks as Managing Director of MathWorks' Swiss office. There he directed the local sales, marketing, applications engineering, and tech-support staff. Before and beginning in 1994 he worked in senior roles at various Swiss distributors for the MathWorks product family until 2000 when MathWorks opened its own office in Switzerland. Before that Reto worked for various companies as a senior sales team member. Reto isn't working at Speedgoat but consults the company in various aspects thanks to his large experience in managing and directing small high-tech companies.
