ExpertCEO a private, on-line community for senior executives, today announced the general availability of its innovative platform connecting corporate leaders to one another and the resources they require.

ExpertCEO members can quickly solve real-world business problems by confidentially exchanging ideas with peers, asking questions of experts across a range of disciplines and locating trusted resources. By applying social networking technology to enable CEOs to solve real-world business issues, they intend to make the social aspects of social networking more like business networking.

This new community provides CEOs with instant access to valuable information, a variety of perspectives and thought-provoking content–all within a secure environment. Lively, high-level site discussions span a wide variety of topics including financing, board governance, compensation, offshore product development and options’ vesting acceleration on acquisition.

Members benefit from a panel of expert advisors who are “on call” to answer their questions. Those responding to queries include James D. Robinson III, general partner of RRE Ventures and former CEO & chairman of American Express; David Hornik, General Partner of August Capital Partners.

To assist with its own strategy and growth, ExpertCEO has established an Advisory Board comprised of accomplished professionals with unique understanding of senior executives’ concerns and behavior, as well as domain knowledge around use of the Web to share information and ideas.
