Bio
Rob Glaser, founder and CEO of RealNetworks, Inc. (NASDAQ: RNWK) - the recognized leader in Internet media delivery, has long been intrigued with the nexus of media, computing, communication and the Internet. Since founding RealNetworks in 1995, Glaser has played an integral role in the transformation of the Internet into the next great mass medium. In 1995 under Glaser's direction, RealNetworks introduced the groundbreaking RealAudio, RealVideo, RealPlayer and RealSystem technologies, effectively transitioning television and radio from broadcast to the Web. With the launch of RealJukebox in 1999, RealNetworks secured its leadership position in the digital distribution of music.
In 2001, RealNetworks introduced the revolutionary RealOne, an all-in-one service and technology platform, the single source for consumers to discover, play and manage the best in brand-name digital programming -- music, entertainment, sports, news, and more. Since its launch, RealOne has become the fastest growing Internet paid media subscription service in history, with more than half-million subscribers in less than eighteen months.
Today, over 250 Million consumers use RealNetworks products to experience multimedia-rich entertainment online.
Prior to founding RealNetworks, Mr. Glaser worked for Microsoft from 1983 and 1993 in a number of executive positions, including Vice President of Multimedia and Consumer Systems.
Mr. Glaser has served on several non-profit boards and committees, including his appointment by President Clinton to the Advisory Committee on Public Interest Obligations of Digital Television Broadcasters.
