Mike Berkley's Summary

Currently at Spotify.

I formerly headed up product management for Comcast's innovation initiatives. My product teams design and develop new TV interfaces and mobile applications that facilitate discovery of content and deepen the user's relationship with it. We bring ambitious ideas and amazing user experiences to life in the next-generation XFINITY TV products that reach 25 million households.

Previously, I served as CEO of SplashCast Media from 2006 to 2009, pioneering Social TV in the online video space, in partnership with Hulu, Sony BMG, Universal Music Group, MTV, and other premium video content providers. As part of the initial group of Facebook platform beta developers in 2007, we were the first company to bring episodic TV and premium music video content into Facebook.
