Tim (TK) Krupa, Founder/President, Atlas Broadband

Tim “TK” Krupa has 20 years of experience in making a positive difference in the lives of people and creating and leading effective teams in the eclectic worlds of business, philanthropy and drag racing.

Tim is the founder and currently serves as President of Atlas Broadband, a California-based company providing redundant broadband solutions to companies nationally such as Vans Shoe stores, VF Corporation, GMAC, Four Wheel Parts, and the Guitar Center stores. Tim’s organization excels in providing high touch services to companies who absolutely positively must have 100% uptime to the internet, remote applications or other locations.

Among other recognitions, Tim is the recipient of the Guttenberg Award for Contribution and Innovation from the Printing Industry Association (PIA) – the first time in history it was given to an individual who does not work in the printing industry. Tim’s creative marketing abilities have been responsible for the sales of hundreds of millions of dollars in monthly recurring, “high value/high margin” services to businesses.

Some of Tim’s strengths are finding needs that cause companies pain and frustration and figuring out how to arrange resources to fill them, and giving people “easy buttons” for complex issues. He is an expert at organizing creative groupings of products and services, gaining and keeping trust over many years, and influencing the influencers in life. In a refreshing, no-nonsense way, and with a hard-hitting communication style, Tim’s motto is “add value, earn profit, enhance lives” – and he goes through life encouraging others to do the same, and to give generously of the resources they manage.

In drag racing, Tim is president and driver of an NHRA and IHRA PRO MOD team. In 12 years racing in regional series throughout the 14 western states, Tim finished consistently in the top ten while having finished #1 two years in a row, and #2 in national points in 2004. After a testing accident sidelined Tim in 2006, the team looks forward to returning to national competition in 2009.

Active in ministry and giving projects, Tim was also a founding board member and director of a local chapter of Optimist International, and started a youth football program for their North Carolina community.

Tim and Marla, his wife of 19 years, split their time between Lincolnton NC, Ventura CA, and on the road in the family motorcoach – along with their six children, who they educate at home.

Tim has engaged with The Helixx Group to advance his lifework objectives and to leverage his value creation skills.
