ADDENDUM: Specific international experience
1. Central Point Software - I built relationships with technology partners in th e South of England, where we bought special software components from them. It in volved traveling to their town and engaging in business discussions with the own ers, while an architect from our team worked with their developers to ascertain the viability of the products. 2. Voxware - Because of my participation in standards bodies and because we had a sales office in the UK with I frequently worked, I helped build alliances betw een France Telecom and Voxware. Specifically, I encountered them, introduced the company, presented the product and its value propositions, and began working th rough the regulatory hurdles to allow TeleVox (Voxware's product) to be remarket ed under the telephone company's brand. Further, I spent much time with British Telecom in their offices in southern London discussing business strategies for t he two companies. Finally, I toured several towns in Britain meeting with small game development companies who were interested in Voxware's products for real-ti me voice chat. 3. ITXC - I sought out business partners for telephony gateways, and found them in a company called VocalTec. During the course of the time with them, I travele d to Herzliya and several other cities in Israel to do business with their devel opment and business teams. Also while there I spent time building alliances with other companies involved in telephony products. These companies also came to vi sit me in the U.S. as our deals progressed. I also met with companies around the world in Hawaii for business development and interoperability summits.
