- Brandon Bruce, COO and co-founder of software startup Cirrus Insight, made the Wall Street Journal. He was quoted in a staff report on how companies will handle holiday parties this year. Bruce said he’s not worried about misbehavior, but he plans to host his staff holiday party at a children’s science museum so that colleagues can bond and have fun in a family setting. Bruce was a candidate for Knoxville City Council this year from District 2.
