Jim Womble

Jim helped mold the future of tech in Arkansas, now home to huge global tech companies. After graduating from the University of Arkansas, Jim started his career at IBM, not using his degree in civil engineering, but as a tech guy and systems engineer. After eight years at IBM (which he credits for producing many great tech leaders in Arkansas), Jim teamed up with old friend Charles Morgan to transform then-small company Acxiom into a billion-dollar company. He’s credited as a founder and has served as a member of the Board of Directors for over 30 years. Now at First Orion, Jim oversees the Calling Solutions side of the business, as well as sales and sales enablement as EVP.
