Louisville, KY — April 28, 2025 — Bluewave Technology Group, a national leader in technology advisory services, is strengthening its presence in the Louisville market by expanding its executive team in the region and celebrating the city’s culture through a high-profile sponsorship in the 151st Kentucky Derby.
Bluewave now has three of its top-performing Vice Presidents based in Louisville: Nic Jones, VP of Sales – Alliances & Indirect; Jason Hulsewede, VP of Sales – Midwest; and Tony Scribner, VP of Solution Advisory. Together, with a team of 20 people in the market and growing, they support both local and national clients in areas such as digital transformation, customer experience modernization, and infrastructure optimization. This expansion reflects Bluewave’s recognition of Louisville as a strategic technology hub, offering a rich talent pool, central geography, and a dynamic business ecosystem.
As a symbol of this investment, Bluewave is proud to sponsor renowned jockey Jose Ortiz—a decorated rider with over 3,000 career wins—riding Sandman, a top contender in this year’s Kentucky Derby.
“We believe in backing best-in-breed talent—whether that’s within our company, among our clients, or on the track at Churchill Downs,” said Seth Penland, CEO of Bluewave. “Sponsoring Jose is our way of showing support for the traditions of Louisville and the excellence it represents.”
Bluewave’s sponsorship is more than a nod to Derby culture—it reflects the company’s broader business philosophy: support proven performers, cultivate innovation, and drive forward with bold ambition.
Derby Week also offers Bluewave an opportunity to bring together clients, suppliers, and industry leaders to celebrate partnerships, exchange insights, and highlight Louisville’s growing role in shaping the future of technology advisory.
