Quam quits gig to help husband Entenza run for governor
Posted by: Rachel E. Stassen-Berger under Minnesota campaigns, Minnesota governor Updated: November 23, 2009 - 10:12 PM
Over on our news side, Thomas Lee has the story:
In a surprise move, health care guru Lois Quam is relinquishing control of the advisory firm she launched just seven months ago, freeing the former UnitedHealth Group executive to help her husband run for governor.
Quam, founder of Tysvar LLC in St. Paul, said Monday she will step down as CEO and surrender her equity stake in the company so she can work on husband Matt Entenza's gubernatorial campaign. Entenza, a Democrat, is a former House Minority Leader. Quam will remain a non-executive chairwoman of the company and retain a symbolic $1 annual salary.
