On October 1, 2013 in Palo Alto at WilmerHale, GABA presented “The Challenge of International Expansion.” Ragu Bhargava of Global Upside moderated panelist Tom Brehmer of VPTax, Sanjeev Kumar of EverStream Energy Capital, Glenn Luinenburg of WilmerHale and Bill Reichert of Garage Ventures. They discussed the importance of startups doing their homework before expanding internationally.

Maitjian and Todd Welke, of Saratoga, are a devoted married couple going hand-in-hand through life and face-to-face at work. “Quite literally,” Maitjian says, laughing. “We work in the same office and our desks face each other. So it’s pretty important that we get along.”
Luckily, they do. Married for 18 years, they divorced themselves from their individual high-powered tech jobs in 2009 and started the San Jose-based CMIT Solutions of Southwest Silicon Valley, an IT service provider for small and midsized businesses.
And they couldn’t be happier, enamored with each other and with the entrepreneurial lifestyle.

I look at going into business as just another one of those things that you can work through together.”
