Mark Sylvester<br>
</b>Co-Founder, CEO<br>
IntroNetworks<br>
<br>
Mark has been on the leading edge of software development for more than twenty
years. As a co-founder of Wavefront Technologies, Mark and his team developed
software that completely revolutionized the way the world is entertained. He
co-designed Wavefront's flagship product, Advanced Visualizer, which was the
first commercial 3D modeling and animation system.<br>
<br>
Working directly with major Hollywood studios, the company introduced the world
to computer-generated animation and received many accolades - including an
Oscar for Technical Achievement. Mark was instrumental in growing Wavefront
over ten years to a $45 million company.<br>
<br>
As the liaison between Fortune 500 clients and Wavefront software developers,
Mark shared with non-technologists the possibilities of a new breed of software
and worked with developers to make clients' dreams come true. Beyond helping
design products that were tailored for the entertainment industry, Wavefront's
technologies revolutionized the design and video game industries as well.<br>
