I founded IP2M in 1999 with two other partners as a way to market services of doctors to patients over the Internet. I created an Internet information platform that grew to include a vertical content delivery system that would be used to syndicate industry specific content to thousands of web sites based on demographics and location. IP2M worked with Clear Channnel Comminication to deliver healthcare and pet care content to its over 1000 radio station web sites. www.ip2m.com.
