Cyanogen and veterans from Google, Amazon and HTC are building 'something really cool'
Nextbit, a mobile technology company founded by former Google executives Tom Moss and Mike Chan, today announced that Scott Croyle has joined as Vice President of Design and Product. Croyle, who was most recently Senior Vice President of Design and User Experience at HTC, will also join the company’s board of directors alongside Rich Wong from Accel Partners and Rich Miner from Google Ventures.
Nextbit has raised $18 million dollars in Series A funding from Accel Partners and Google Ventures to develop breakthrough technology that allows for deeper integration between the cloud and mobile devices. As mobile devices continue to evolve, users will expect more from their devices and seek better ways to manage their mobile experiences. Nextbit is tackling this growing challenge with unparalleled technical talent while prioritizing intuitive design and a seamless user experience, which Croyle will lead.
“We're excited to start using our technology to bring several unique consumer experiences to market later this year, and Scott will play a big role in this next phase of our company,” said Nextbit CTO Mike Chan.
