Eric Ly, co-founder of LinkedIn and the emerging Presdo, has agreed to partner with Wellington Partners to help the company develop a stronger presence in the U.S.
The Munich- and London-based venture capital firm invests in the technology and life science industries. Eric Ly will be working with General Partner Eric Archambeau, who previously worked at Benchmark Capital and Atlas Venture.
For the two days a month that Ly is committed to Wellington he will be focusing on social media and social networking.
Ly’s professional portfolio includes Presdo, a simple online scheduling assistant that Lee began back in April 2006, and LinkedIn, the professional networking site that was recently valued at $1 billion.

thanks for the info about the Linked In founder. I’m looking for background checks of my employees who are not performing well in the company. i found their profiles at linked in and thought they’d be good candidates for the job.
