George Tuvell’s Summary

I help build great companies, assisting with product strategy and business development - 100% execution driven.
I am well connected to OEMs, wireless operators, software vendors and several players in the mobile ecosystem.

I have co-founded and led the product development of two successful software companies. I have also shared responsibility in new business development, sales and marketing, and revenue generation. I focus on emerging and disruptive technologies that solve customer-centric problems, working with companies that want to change the game.

I thrive at working with honest people I respect. I love building and participating in creative teams, and being hands on from concept to closing deals. I am currently the Managing Director at George Tuvell Consulting, helping mobile companies build products and drive revenue. Recently, I was the VP of Sales and Business Development at HostedLABS. Prior to HostedLABS, I was Co-Founder & CTO at SMobile Systems, and before that I co-founded a wireless telecom management company, FedCel, which was acquired in 2005. I graduated with honors from The Ohio State University with a BS in Business Administration & Management Information Systems.
