History

BakBone Software, headquartered in San Diego, specializes in cutting-edge data protection and retention solutions. Its comprehensive suite of services supports critical applications such as Oracle, Microsoft SQL Server, Microsoft Exchange, MySQL, Lotus Notes, PostgreSQL, DB2, and Informix. In 2003, Daryl Yurek led the company in securing a groundbreaking $22M financing, successfully negotiated with Smith Barney as the lead banker. This achievement was particularly notable as it represented the first successful tech company financing in North America following the dot-com crash of 2000, setting a precedent for recovery in the tech industry.
