As the Co-Founder executive chairman of LinkedIn, it’s a simple numbers game for Reid Hoffman. 80 million users. Over 2000 personal connections. And over six million potential referrals. But Reid really isn’t a numbers guy. “My strongest personal passion is how to improve life for hundreds of millions of people.”
But living out this passion takes customizable technology like Dell Latitude™ laptops , OptiPlex™ desktops and Precision Workstations that can get LinkedIn employees up and running quickly.
According to Reid, “We made a decision very early to go with Dell because we could get the right kind of specified equipment to the right employees - letting them ramp up at a high speed and get support very easily.”
