SAN JOSE, Calif. – December 17, 2015 – Sphere 3D Corp., a containerization, virtualization and data management solutions provider, today announced that its CEO, Eric Kelly is delivering the convocation address, titled “Write Your Own Destiny” to the Fall 2015 graduating class of San Jose State University’s Lucas College and Graduate School of Business (LCoB). 500 students and 2,500 parents and guests are expected to attend the graduation event which is scheduled to take place as follows:
Date: Friday, December 18, 2015
Time: 4:00 p.m. ceremony begins
Location: SJSU Event Center
“Eric is the perfect person to speak to the Fall 2015 graduating class as he has accomplished so much since receiving his B.S. from our university some 30 years ago,” said Marlene Turner, interim dean, Lucas College and Graduate School of Business at San Jose State University. “Eric’s career path is a compelling and interesting story which now sees him at the helm of a publicly-traded, technology-leading company, and his other achievements are equally outstanding. In addition to his undeniably successful professional background, he was a nationally ranked golfer, works with the President of the U.S. on an advisory council, and has been involved with the mentoring of 100s of at-risk youths via the Vision of Success program. I believe our graduates will find him an engaging and motivational speaker, and they will appreciate his insights as they venture out in their own careers.”
