Summary
Hans Peter led Everyday Robots, an AI-meets-robotics moonshot at Alphabet / Google X from 2016-2023. With one foot in today, and the other in the future, Everyday Robots was on a mission to turn the helper robots of science fiction into reality. A high-tech executive and successful entrepreneur, Hans Peter has spent his career at the intersection of technology innovation and creating products and companies that empower people. He has founded several category defining companies including; Plum, an early web and mobile app for collaboration and group conversations, acquired by Nokia in 2009; Post Communications, a pioneering email marketing software-as-a-service, acquired by Netcentives in 2000; DiVA VideoShop, the first product to bring digital video editing to consumers, acquired by Avid Technology in 1993. He has also held positions at Nokia in Berlin, Apple in Tokyo, and at CERN (the Center for European Nuclear Research) in Geneva. Hans Peter has served on start-up and non-profit boards, is the author of the NYT best selling book, The Engaged Customer, is on the MIT Media Lab Visiting Committee, has been a guest lecturer at MIT and Cambridge University, has testified at US Senate and FCC hearings on Internet privacy and consumer data management, and has been a featured/keynote speaker at countless conferences on topics ranging from technology driven innovation and entrepreneurship to privacy and the broad influence and impact of technology on society. Always seeking new adventures, when Hans Peter is not wrangling robots, he can frequently be found on a mountaintop or behind a lens: http://www.brondmo.com
