クレイグ・コンウェイ

Former CEO, PeopleSoft


Craig Conway has enjoyed one of the most distinguished and successful careers in the technology industry. He has been recognized as one of the Top 25 Managers by BusinessWeek, one of the Ten Most Influential People In High Technology by Computer Business Review, and one of the Fifty Most Powerful People in Networking by NetworkWorld.

As president and chief executive officer, Conway has led several technology companies to success including most recently, PeopleSoft. Conway joined PeopleSoft in 1999 and began one of the most dramatic turnarounds in the technology industry. His vision to develop the industry's first pure internet architecture, determination to expand into new products and markets, and intense focus on execution drove PeopleSoft to become the world's second largest provider of business software. In 2002 Fortune magazine named PeopleSoft the Second Most Admired Company, and Forbes magazine named PeopleSoft one of Five Overachieving Companies.

On June 2, 2003, Conway announced the acquisition of JD Edwards, making PeopleSoft a $2.9 billion company with 12,000 customers in 150 countries and starting a wave of industry consolidation. Four days later PeopleSoft itself became a takeover target by Oracle Corporation, and so began the longest hostile takeover attempt in history. Eighteen months later PeopleSoft was sold for $10.3 billion, almost $4 billion more than Oracle's initial offer and $7 billion more than the value of the company when Conway took over as CEO.

Conway has served as president and CEO of TGV Software, One Touch Systems, and PeopleSoft. He has also held executive management positions at a variety of leading technology companies including Executive Vice President at Oracle Corporation.
