Riel Roussopoulos’s Summary
I've got experience in getting projects off the ground. Be they new product launches or new companies, I have a good ability to take a project from concept to functional business model.
My specialty is really technology evangelism. I have always used technology and particularly the internet to distinguish myself from "the rest".
Likewise I have an uncanny ability to evaluate a business or idea and visualize how to digitize their process and both streamline and vastly increase their work flow as a result.
I have experience in orchestrating large scale public events and creating and executing the plan to deal with thousands of people.
In business I've played all the rolls from sales to CEO to messenger to council member, which means that I bring a wealth of experience from all sides of the equation to every project that I take on.
I am looking for capital to help grow a new company which builds communities and business management solutions. Part of that includes showing business's, artists and other organizations how to use web based tools to better manage their client and content management needs.
I am always interested in consulting with people and groups on their technology needs and options and plans... I am a very good IDEA person that can show you avenues that you may not have been aware of.

Prime Minister
undernet.* Services Ltd.
(Privately Held; 11-50 employees; Entertainment industry)
1994 — 2000 (6 years)
undernet.* Started it's life as a reuseable ticketing and membership system that was in opperation in throughout the 90's. We were very focused on the Rave scene and had tied a lot of the systems reporting and tracking technology into the existing bylaw structure of the "private members club". As such the system required that you register as a member and the card (a magnetic stripe credit card style event ticket) became your ticket to all future events. (as well as a member of a private club, thereby bybassing the "public event" bylaws).
For a number of reasons both personal and growth related, we decided to stop our current business path and put undernet.* on hold for a while.
Since then, we've repurposed the name (federally trademarked) to be a VoIP company with national reach. Please visit www.undernet.ca to learn more. -

The HR MacMillan Planetarium was in a funk and hadn't been updated since the late 60's. Working under Michael Harding, a leading Vancouver campaign manager and government relations expert, I acted in the position of Presentation Consultant, preparing most of the funding requests to both private sector companies and matching government funds.
We raised a total of $8.8 Million and successfully saw the launch of the New Pacific Space Centre... since renamed the HR MacMillan Space Centre (can you guess who our biggest contributor was?) -
