I guess NAVTEQ CEO Judson Green is doing the circuit now that the Nokia/NAVTEQ deal looks like it'll go through. My colleague
interviewed him last week and the
Chicago Tribune spoke to him, too. Nothing too new in the story, but the "how long will he stay" question came up:
[Brandon] Dobell [of William Blair & Co. in Chicago] said Green might stay on for a year or so after the Nokia acquisition, then leave for another business or just focus on his music—the Navteq CEO is an avid jazz pianist.
When asked if he was planning to stay, Green praised the firm and its prospects.
"We have a very exciting future and we've got a great team and we're continuing to grow, so these are really exciting drivers for me," Green said.
