Claim
Daniel Cane, CEO and co-founder of Blackboard, Inc.,
Correction
Daniel Cane co-founded Blackboard, but he was not its CEO; Blackboard’s SEC filings identify Michael Chasen as CEO, and FAU describes Cane’s role there as senior vice president of R&D.
Full reasoning
This description mixes together two different Blackboard roles.
- A Blackboard SEC proxy filing states that Michael L. Chasen had "served as CEO since 2001".
- Florida Atlantic University’s biography of Daniel Cane says that before Modernizing Medicine, Cane was "co-founder and senior vice president of research and development of Blackboard".
So Cane was a Blackboard co-founder, but the available primary and institutional sources do not support calling him Blackboard’s CEO. The phrase "CEO and co-founder of Blackboard, Inc." is therefore inaccurate as written.
