Kimberly Getgen
[ Founder and CEO ]
When facing industry disruption, you want a partner who is more than "book smart", you want an educated street fighter. Kim developed a passion for disrupting industries because she started and studied disruptive companies. Her 20+ year career began in the Silicon Valley where she had a once-in-a-lifetime chance to co-found a venture-backed disruptive, cybersecurity startup in a garage that was later acquired by a F500 company. Being a Washington D.C. native, Kim moved back to the east coast where she received the "Maverick of the Year" Award for Women in Business and completed the General Management Program at Harvard Business School.
Kim leads by VIP: Vision with Integrity and Passion and is an approachable executive, relatable at all levels of an organization with an enthusiasm that is infectious. An underdog and entrepreneur at heart, Kim believes creating successful businesses should be as much fun as it is hard work. Through her leadership, she co-creates authentic teams that are wired for growth. She'll inspire your team to stay open, hungry and be ready to win.
Kim graduated from the General Management Program at Harvard Business School, received the M.Phil in International Development Studies from Oxford University and a Bachelors of Arts from Wake Forest. You can connect with her by emailing kim@growthcatalystmarketing.com
