Alan Lepofsky -
Working in the collaboration industry since 1993. Main areas of interest include:
- The evolution of communication technologies, from email, to chat, to social networking. Improvements in the creation, sharing, and storage of content (documents, presentations) and richer forms of media such as podcasts, videos, scorecards, and mashups.
- Locating and sharing subject matter expertise. Helping employees, customers, and partners share information and operate more effectively with collective knowledge.
- Bringing aspects of the video game world to business.
- Bringing all of the above together in ways where the tools can help people discover the content and people they need to get their job done.
