Michael Adkins
Senior Vice President, Operations

Mr. Adkins is a member of Global Equity Capital’s operations group. He has over 20 years of management experience in the technology industry including with Micron Technology, and later with MPC Computers. When MPC Computers, LLC was acquired by a Gores Group affiliate from Micron PC in 2001, Mr. Adkins was named President and CEO, continuing in that role until after the company was acquired by Hyperspace Communications.
