Hayden Football Club Under 12s, a football team of Hayden Youth Association, Kent, has been kitted out by ABB Building Systems.
He has a proven track record of starting and building successful companies.
He founded and served as the President of Eureka Broadband Corporation - now known as InfoHighway Networks - a profitable telecommunications company with $110 million in annual revenues.
Prior to Eureka, he was a partner at ETF Group, a $250 million Swiss technology venture fund.
Vanech founded Cadforce in 2001.
"We are on the cusp of a trend," said Dr Fielding.
"Within the next three years, 50% of all residential and commercial construction in the US will contain some type of offshore production element.
In this new environment, Cadforce will be able to completely transform the architecture industry through its innovative blendshore process, which combines American expertise with Indian labor." "This is not about replacing jobs," continued Dr Fielding.
"It's about conserving one of our scarcest resources - time.
Instead of spending hours drafting, Cadforce's systems and methods will enable American architects to enjoy more weekends with their families, grow their businesses, or apply their architectural know-how to solve social problems.
Dr Fielding is an accomplished expert in global sourcing, organizational and technology integration, business process analysis and project management.
He was most recently the Director of Offshoring, Outsourcing and Business Transformations for Booz Allen Hamilton.
Prior to that, he served as Vice President of Application Development and Offshore Initiatives at JPMorganChase for eight years.
While there, he advanced many efforts, including the development of a patent for the inter-bank Check Image Exchange, which is used by many major financial institutions.
His unique approach to merging quality systems and practices with offshore components and team dynamics has been an equation for growth and success.
Dr Fielding's focus on organizational and quality practices has a foundation in his award-winning work at ATandT Bell Labs.
While serving as Manager of the Product Realization Process for ATandT's Power Systems division, his team received the prestigious Deming Quality Award for its process improvement efforts.
"With his experience, I expect that Dr Fielding will grow his team to over 2000 people by the end of the decade, positioning Cadforce as the industry standard," said Vanech.
