From our IPO to navigating complex legal challenges, his leadership, judgment and integrity have helped shape who we are as a company. Beyond his many professional accomplishments, Eric has been a trusted counselor and a steady hand through every major milestone in our journey. I’m deeply grateful for all he’s contributed, and that he’ll continue to be part of 10x as an advisor.”

Saxonov continued, “I’m thrilled to have Randy stepping into the role of General Counsel and Secretary. Randy has been with 10x for nearly a decade and knows our company, our mission and our people inside and out.
