Thank you! Am humbled to be name checked in the same sentence as Marc Ewing! Proud to be a #RedHatter! As the other co-founder, Bob Young, said: “would you buy a car if the hood was welded shut?” #opensource = no one innovates alone… and unlocks the world’s potential!
The story of Red Hat began when co-founder Marc Ewing wore his grandfather's red Cornell lacrosse cap, leading to the nickname "the guy in the red hat" for anyone who needed technical help. This became the inspiration for the company's name and logo, which was first used on an early invoice in 1993, the same year the company was founded by Ewing and Bob Young. Today, this legacy is alive and well with our James Lovegrove! On any given day, you see him proudly wearing the Red Hat fedora.
