About
Eric Chan is an aspiring Renaissance Man and 100% Mobile Evangelist. Recently, I have started consulting for companies in the mobile space, around Product Strategy (defining mobile products and services) and Business Development (helping companies with International expansion from the US to Europe and Asia). I also speak regularly at conferences and event around mobile content and services. Also, for those of you who wonder, you can see what mobile devices, I am currently carrying, as well as what I have used in the past in my Device Gallery. My experience has been in Technology Marketing and Business Development for companies: Caboodle Networks (acquired by MCN), FXI, Gamelion Studios, Inktomi (acquired by Yahoo!), Keynote (KEYN), Mobile Complete, MCN, Pixo (acquired by Sun Microsystems), and Sun Microsystems (SUNW), and Tanla Mobile. I am also a Consulting Faculty and Adjunct Lecturer in the School of Computer Science at Carnegie Mellon University, and in the past have been the Education Director for the Robotics Academy at NASA Ames.
Current interest include: mobile payment, SMS voting, mobile search, mobile social applications, mobile data services, and the Semantic Web.
