About Steve Poland: Risk Taker

I’m a serial (web) entrepreneur and innovator. Formerly a TechCrunch writer that has a passion for web start-ups, viral marketing and the monetization aspect of web apps/sites.

Latest start-up launching soon (Summer 2010): ifluencer

My 12-year background in the web consists of starting several web start-ups, founding an Internet Marketing firm, and working in every role (PM, Sales, BizDev, etc) at five different web development firms, where I was apart of the dev/launch of hundreds of websites/apps.

I have a clear understanding of web technologies and hold a B.S. Management from Purdue University (Go Boilers!). I have lived all over the USA, but currently reside in my hometown of Buffalo, NY where it has been a painstaking road to win any national sports championship ;) I co-founded the organization of BarCamp Buffalo. In my spare time, I can be found at the gym, at a concert, having a good time, or throwing an annual New Year’s Eve party.

If you’re an entrepreneur seeking some advice, drop me an email — I’d love to help if I can.
