"Chris has played a key role in the company's growth and has made great contributions to L-com's success," comments Ed Caselden, L-com's CEO. "In recent years, we have deepened our penetration into key market segments such as mil/aero, industrial networking, and medical devices. At the same time, we have significantly accelerated our sales growth in international markets, including Asia/Pacific and China. Chris's work has been a key factor in all of those areas."

Long holds a bachelor's degree from Harvard University and an MBA from Harvard Business School. Prior to joining L-com, he was a founder and chief marketing officer/general manager at Litle & Co., where he helped drive the company's sales from a start-up to over $100 million annually, and helped the company attain the #1 ranking in INC Magazine's 2006 list of the fastest-growing companies in the US.
