Bill Claxton’s Summary

You can tell from my work experience that I am a serial entrepreneur, active in digital media.

Though I started out in California, I have been resident in Singapore for 20 years. During that time, I developed original hardware and software products and deployed content distribution networks spanning multiple Asian countries. I also got married and together with my wife have been raising a son, now 11 years old.

My current interests are in the area of webcasting, presentation recording and social media. I am leading my company in a direction that I hope will establish it as a leader in Internet video solutions. But I am still restless. I have several balls in the air including various professional advisory roles, my charitable work and of course running the business. But new ideas keep coming and I think it's a great time to be in IT.
