History
The inception of 10x Management dates back to 2001, when Altay Guvench, who is both a programmer and musician, was contacted by Michael Solomon and Rishon Blumberg, ex-managers from the entertainment sector, to assist in brokering a programming agreement. Identifying the rising prominence of technology experts as the new "rock stars," they established the firm to represent leading professionals in tech.
In September 2020, Solomon and Blumberg authored Game Changer. How to Be 10x in the Talent Economy, a publication that outlines methods for attracting, retaining, and managing high-caliber talent within the technology industry.
Products and services
The company, founded by former music industry managers Michael Solomon and Rishon Blumberg, focuses on representing programmers during contract discussions and generates income by taking a portion of their clients' earnings.
