Douglas Ross

I've worked in electronics technology and communications network infrastructure manufacturing businesses for forty plus years. I've run a business unit as a general manager and several business units as a group executive. I've also lead functional corporate groups such as business development, strategic planning, M&A, regulatory affairs, and financial planning. I was responsible several times for expanding domestic businesses internationally and I've lead acquisition transactions throughout the world. I served three CEOs in different industries as a senior strategy and business development advisor. I've also experienced entrepreneurship, co-founding and running a small consulting business for several years.

Specialties:

Most recently focused on the convergence of video, voice, data technologies related to cable television and IPTV. I've been looking at future consumer entertainment business models, interactive television applications, targeted television advertising, audience measurement, viewer behavior modeling, consumer privacy, authentication & identity models, reputation systems, social networks, digital rights management, content security and content search & retrieval technologies.
