About Me:
Ken Rutkowski is a local resident of LA who is (hyper)
active in the new media arena, with a special emphasis on
the emerging technologies that will be especially
significant for Los Angeles' media and entertainment
companies: from wireless, multimedia to convergence
technologies.
Ken has cultivated a phenomenal network of relationships,
ranging from the biggest tech companies (Microsoft, Sun,
and IBM) to the motion picture studios and of course the
local software development shops, IT outsourcers and IT
consultants. He has done it all single-handedly.
He manages to keep in touch with a huge number of people
via several formats: his daily newsletter (Ken Rutkowski
Daily Tech Clicks), which is read by an audience of over
42,000 daily; a daily radio show (World tech Round Up) on
the topic of technology and entertainment, produced in LA
and occasionally on location at big trade shows and other
events with over 170,000 daily listeners; and most
importantly, regular events.
Ken runs three regular events in LA. There is a weekly
Saturday morning breakfast in Santa Monica, where several
hundred media and tech executives gather; a weekly Tuesday
lunch in Venice which is a professional networking event;
and the rapidly-growing MET (Media Entertainment
Technology) Salon, a speaking and panel discussion event
which Ken moderates to some of the biggest players in the
media, entertainment, and technology worlds.
Ken has been profiled in The Wall Street Journal, Business
Week, Wired, The Red Herring, Internet World, Electronic
Media, Asahi Shinbun, Bangkok Post, Yahoo Internet Life
and dozens of other publications worldwide.
Ken Rutkowski has been a featured presenter at over
seventy industry conferences, including COMDEX, CES, CTIA,
NATPE, NAB, Internet World, Streaming Media, Radio Ink and
MILIA. Rutkowski is a founding member of the Streaming
Media Executive Committee, and is on the board of several
media, entertainment and technology companies.

charmer. :)
