Frederic Dumeny’s Summary
As a true Internet Veteran, I've always been active in the "new forms of the Internet"
After founding & managing an Internet company 15 years ago, I moved to the "Mobile Internet"
For the last 10 years, I've been launching business, concluding & managing partnerships between content providers, platform suppliers, telcos & medias and managing sales teams in the Mobile Internet European market both for small fast-moving startups & for large international companies
Now that the Internet is going one step further away from the "Home Computer only" experience, I work for Mobile Internet & Internet of Things innovative companies.
