Page "Borland" Paragraph 2

Borland successfully launched a series of blockbusters that included Turbo Pascal, SideKick, SuperKey, and Lightning, all developed in Denmark.

According to the London IPO filings, the management team was Philippe Kahn as President, Spencer Ozawa as VP of Operations, Marie Bourget as CFO, and Spencer Leyton as VP of business development, while all software development was continuing to take place in Denmark and later London as the Danish co-founders moved there.

While the Danes remained majority shareholders, board members included Philippe Kahn, Tim Berry, John Nash, and David Heller.

With the assistance of John Nash and David Heller, both British members of the Borland Board, the company was taken public on London's Unlisted Securities Market ( USM ) in 1986.

Schroders was the lead investment banker.
