Akamai founder, CTO killed in World Trade Center jet crash

9/11/2001 2:40:00 PM
LOS ANGELES, Sept 11 (Reuters) - Internet content distribution company Akamai Technologies Inc. (AKAM) said on Tuesday that one of its co-founders was killed when the jet he had boarded crashed into New York's World Trade Center.

Daniel C. Lewin, who also served as the company's chief technology officer, was on board American Airlines Flight 11, en route from Boston to Los Angeles.

That plane was one of two to hit the World Trade Center Tuesday, bringing the 110-storey towers crashing to the ground.

Lewin, who was 31, was also a board member of the company, which launched its commercial service in April 1999.

George H. Conrades, Chairman and Chief Executive of Akamai, said in a statement: "Danny was a wonderful human being. He will be deeply missed by his many friends at Akamai. Our thoughts and prayers are with Danny's family, friends and colleagues during this time of national tragedy and personal loss."
