Sally Lange is a tech industry expert, thought leader and founder of Slang Consulting, a strategy & innovation consulting firm that shepherds both technology start-ups and Fortune 500 companies to new marketplaces. With over 25 years in wireless and tech, she has developed and led billion-dollar businesses, working with world-leading brands like Walmart, Target, Best Buy, Sam’s Club, Costco, Walgreens, Apple, Samsung, Sprint, Verizon, T-Mobile and AT&T.

Lange spent over a dozen years with Brightstar, the leading wireless global supply chain company, building several internal start-ups as the company grew to $10B in revenue across 50 countries. During her tenure, Sally held leadership positions as head of global marketing, VP of product development & innovation, President of global retail services and President of sales & marketing.

Subsequently, Sally joined Sprint as an officer and Vice President in the lead-up to the merger with T-Mobile. While there, she led a national team managing the business with major retailers, developed sales channels from the ground up and created strategic partnerships to drive growth and innovation for Sprint/T-Mobile. It was this experience that made the need for a solution like SwitchBin so apparent. “Today, customers buy from brands that make the process seamless, easy and fast,” said Lange. “At the same time, retailers and carriers alike are facing an unprecedented labor shortage and escalating costs to run labor-intensive stores. The time has come to bridge the gap with a technology-forward solution.”
