Touraj Parang’s Summary

I enjoy building companies and launching products globally. I have a unique approach based on over 10 years of experience in Silicon Valley as a corporate attorney, venture capitalist and operating executive at a popular online social communications service.

My particular focus for the past 5 years has been on social networking and consumer services that can grow virally worldwide with little or no advertising expenditure. Having sold my last company (JAXTR), I am now an advisor to several startups in the areas of fundraising, team building, business development, product strategy and viral marketing while looking for the next world-changing idea to fully immerse myself in.
