Cuong Do

Cuong Do is currently President, Corporate Strategy Group for Samsung and was formerly the Chief Strategy Officer for Merck, Tyco Electronics and Lenovo. He was a senior partner at McKinsey & Company, a leading management consulting firm, where he spent 17 years helping lead the firm's healthcare, high technology and Corporate Finance practices.

Cuong took a year off from corporate life (between his roles at Samsung and Merck) to create Identifor. Identifor started as a concern over 5 years ago when he was helping to develop Autism Speaks' strategic plan - when his team revealed that between 500,000 and 1 million autistic teenagers will become adults in the coming decade, and that 70%+ of these future adults will face unemployment and will continue to rely on parents for housing and transportation. Cuong and Lori then spent years' worth of nights and weekends searching for tools and solutions to help address this upcoming tragedy. When none were found, they decided that something has to be built. Thus Identifor was born.
