Skywire Software Announces Spin-off of iWave Software

Skywire Software has announced the spin-off of its line of iWave Integrator integration software into an independent company under the name iWave Software. The creation of the new company solidifies iWave Software as a leading independent vendor of IT service management (ITSM) integration software, and positions the company for entry into the fast-growing run book automation market.

Brent Rhymes, who previously served as general manager for iWave Integrator, has been named president & CEO of the new company. Rhymes brings more than 16 years of direct industry experience in senior management, sales and marketing to iWave Software. He co-founded two successful technology startup companies, Knoxville-based FileKeeper, Inc. and Houston-based Gapware Solutions Corporation. Rhymes has also held senior executive positions at NetIQ, NEON Systems and Scalable Software, as well as sales and management positions at Microsoft Corporation, IBM and Exxon Company USA.
