SimpleGeo Cofounder Matt Galligan Steps Down; Will Focus On Helping TechStars And A Non-Profit

24065v7-max-250x250Last November, location startup SimpleGeo brought in former Digg CEO Jay Adelson to replace co-founder Matt Galligan as CEO. At the time, Galligan slid into the role of Chief Strategy Officer and became more of a public face for the company. Now he's leaving the company entirely.You can read the news on SimpleGeo's blog here, as well as Galligan's own thoughts here. But essentially this is something that has been in the works ever since Adelson took over those many months ago, Galligan tells us. With the company now transitioning into their next phase, Galligan felt the time was right to fully step aside. He'll continue to serve as an advisor, but Adelson and SimpleGeo co-founder Joe Stump will continue to steer the ship.
