Elise Cambournac

NASHVILLE TECHNOLOGY COUNCIL today announced it will form a search committee to recruit a successor to current CEO Elise Cambournac, whose departure, effective Dec. 31, 2024, was announced by the nonprofit trade association today.

This morning's NTC press release here includes comments by NTC Board Chair Casey Santos, Incoming Chair Rod McDaniel, as well as Cambournac.

Nine CEOs have thus far led the organization during seasons of challenges and opportunities associated with such intervening variables as Y2K, the entwined SaaS/Cloud explosions, Web 2.0, Meta, rising cybersecurity and crypto-computing threats, privacy challenges, domestic and global regulatory regimes, and rampant application and expansion of NLP-ML-AI-GPT/LLM, to name but a few tech, cultural and economic factors.

Cambournac took-up her NTC CEO duties 30 months ago, succeeding Bryan Moyer, who had served 68 months at the time of his departure, which VNC research indicates was the longest term thus far served at NTC in CEO capacity.

NTC CEO compensation of all forms totaled nearly $192K per year, according to NTC's 2022 Form 990.

Update: Cambournac told VNC on Oct. 25, "I'm still exploring career opportunities." The Oct. 24 NTC release carried no designation of a search committee leader or background for Cambournac's departure.
