The man seems to be helping multiple companies at the same time

Peripheral maker Razer decided its board of directors (BOD) needed, or could at least benefit, from advice, so it contacted Rahul Sood for help.

Sood is the founder of VoodooPC and also an employee, of sorts, of Microsoft, more specifically Microsoft Bing. He launched the first angel investment fund in Microsoft's history (the bing fund) and has the role of helping early stage startups.

Sood will be tasked with guiding the company's product development practices, sales tactics, and everything else that could determine its viability/evolution as a business.

The marketing performance of future gaming hardware will show whether or not his involvement brought the intended benefits.

We are thinking of successors to things like the Razer Edge Tablet and the Abyssus Gaming Mouse.

“I'm a fan of Rahul's work at VoodooPC, and it is our shared passion for PC gaming and technological innovation that makes his involvement with Razer so relevant and exciting,” says Min-Liang Tan, Razer CEO.
