Texas Tech University’s Rawls College of Business presents its Chief Executives’ Roundtable (CXR) speaker series for the fall semester beginning at 11:30 a.m. Thursday (Sept. 26) at Lubbock Country Club.

Entrepreneur and Texas Tech alumna, Usha Viswanathan will be the first speaker in the series.

Viswanathan, a mother of two, turned in her diaper bag for a backpack and received a Master of Science in Management Information System at Texas Tech with a 4.0 GPA.  She later co-founded the now internationally known Starnik, a high-tech startup in Lubbock which provides cloud software solutions for utility billing and energy management.
