Nir Ofir’s Summary

Social Media and the way it transforms our culture excites me and keeps me busy.

I am one of the co founders of blogTV.com, a LIVE social broadcasting platform that enables anyone to create his own TV channel on the web and on the mobile. He is an active entrepreneur in the Israeli and global Social Media space. He specializes in the design, development and marketing of products and services in the field of communities and user generated content.

Prior to blogTVas the editor in chief of Tapuz.co.il I initiated and oversaw the creation of Israel’s most popular Internet and mobile community and user generated content platforms. Using these platforms, I lead and supported the creation of dozens of Social Media oriented projects for Israel’s top Media brands and mobile operators.

In 2005, I initiated blogDay , an international day that is dedicated for promoting blogs and bloggers and celebrate social media. BlogDay got major attention from bloggers and the media in the last 3 years.
