Alan Wallace’s Summary

With 15 years of experience, I am a very qualified public relations professional with expertice in consumer, entertainment and hi tech. For those who wish to view by personal website please vist (http://www.alanwallace.com/business).

I was a founder of the first PR firm dedicated to promote the Internet - iAgency . My clients have included: AOL, Warner Bros., GTE, Symantec, Hollywood Online, HBO and many equally impressive large and small clientele. The iAgency web site it archived at http://www.alanwallace.com/iagency

I sold InterActive Agency and joined Internet Radio leader - Live365. I started with the company as its VP of Marketing and raised the company to the #1 Internet radio provider according to Arbitron. I became its SVP of Corporate Communications and the company averaged 100+ media breaks a month.

I joined Panda Software's US headquarters as VP of Corporate Communications. Panda (http://www.pandasoftware.com) provides superior Antivirus solutions and competes with Symantec, McAfee & Trend Micro among others. My job is to make (Madrid, Spain based) Panda better known in the US and to let the press and public know that there is an antivirus solution that works and finds viruses the others miss.

After Panda I joined Smarter.com, a comparison shopping site and also operates CouponMountain.com - the largest database of online coupons. The companies media attention has grown very well since my joining - the press room can be viewed at http://www.smarter.com/press. MeziMedia was purchased by ValueClick.

I was most recently with CyberDefender Corporation in Los Angeles.

I recently joined the public relations team at Microsoft in Trustworthy Computing
