Danny Maco’s Summary

I have been involved with Engineering and IT related industries for over 20 years.

I am currently immersed in the exciting world of immersive technologies! ExitReality provides the groundbreaking technology which will transform the entire internet to 3d.

Previously I was VP, Privacy and Corporate Development for Adzilla, Inc., an ISP based data analytics company headquartered in San Francisco. Adzilla leverages clickstream information observed from within the ISP to deliver highly targeted online advertising.

Formerly, I held the position of GM Ventures, COO for MCC:O2. MCC:O2 provided funding and operational support for early stage companies. As GM of ventures, I managed the operations of our client companies from the US and Europe. As COO, I managed the operations of MCC:O2 as well as supplementing business development and fund raising initiatives.

In this role, I also served in the following capacities:

COO: Digital ML USA, Inc (www.ignitexml.com)
COO: Cytak, Inc. (www.cytak.com)
VP, Corporate Development: Nexiasoft (www.nexiasoft.com)

Formerly I was the Director of Consulting Services for the Strategic Information Group, focused in the biotech, medical device and emerging technology industries.

Before SIG I was VP Strategic Development for X2 Technologies. X2 Technologies provided CIO, program management and on-site IT Support services.

I am the co-author of the book CIO Wisdom which was published by prentice hall in 2003.

I worked for 13 years with the SAES Getters Group, which is an Italian based international high tech manufacturing company with operations throughout Asia, the US and Europe. In 1989 I began as a mechanical design engineer, ultimately serving as corporate CIO for the global group.

While responsible for groups in Asia, US and Europe, I was based in both San Francisco and Milan, Italy.
