“Boston-based dental tech firm Virtudent Inc. is currently on the hunt for a new chief executive after its longtime founder and former CEO left the company,” reported Boston Business Journal.
The local business newspaper quoted company spokesperson Carol Arnold as saying that “He’s no longer with the company, and we are presently searching for a new CEO.”
She did not elaborate on the reasons for the departure, nor exactly when he left. She said that the company plans to hire a new chief executive within the next two months, reported Boston Business Journal.
