San Francisco, CA – April 20, 2009 – Revision3 CEO Jim Louderback has been named by Streaming Media to the Streaming Media All-Star Team, a comprehensive list of industry leaders who make up the most innovative, influential and important players in the online video arena. The full list and profile of each winner is available at http://www.streamingmedia.com/article.asp?id=11081.
Internet television visionary Jim Louderback was recognized for his ability to guide Revision3’s growth to a 3X increase in revenue and 6X increase in video views within 18 months. “It’s an honor to be highlighted by Streaming Media, and even more of an honor to be in such amazing company,” said Jim Louderback, CEO, Revision3. “We’ve come so far as an industry, but there’s such tremendous potential just over the horizon. We’re looking forward to continuing to build out our amazing Revision3 viewing experience, while pushing Internet TV towards its destiny as the ultimate source of video-based entertainment and information.”
This year’s Streaming Media All-Star team—comprised of executives from companies such as Hulu, TiVo, Adobe Systems, Fox Interactive Media and Harvard University—were selected based not only on personal successes but also for their commitment to streaming media at large, whether in advancing it via technical innovation and business strategies or through efforts to educate the industry.
“This year’s Streaming Media All-Stars represent the diversity of the online video industry today, from the entertainment industry to education and the enterprise, and from hard-core technologists to conceptual visionaries,” says Streaming Media editor Eric Schumacher-Rasmussen. “But one thing ties them all together: A passion for online video that goes beyond merely advancing their own personal and professional agendas to pushing the entire industry forward. They’re all superstars, but they’re all team players, too.”
