Background

About Ilan Tochner

Entrepreneur with experience in identifying unmet market needs and developing commercialized solutions that address them. From vision to monetization, I find opportunities and turn ideas into money generating businesses. I interface with third parties, define requirements, build teams, and lead them in creating innovative solutions on a tight budget. I'm currently focused on Kitely, a startup I co-founded in 2008 with the initial vision of enabling people to improve group activities by enabling them to create the perfect virtual environment for their current need on demand. In 2013 we extended our mission to helping create an open Metaverse by enabling you to teleport with your avatar, and all the content you collected, between different virtual world platforms. Our vision has evolved further since then. Contact me to learn more. Kitely is now the biggest commercial provider of virtual worlds based on OpenSimulator technology. We host over virtual worlds. Our platform has been used for training, education, collaboration, simulations, art exhibitions, machinima creation, theatrical performances, role playing, information centers, book promotions, 3D design, and entertainment activities. Kitely Market is the main virtual goods marketplace for the entire OpenSimulator ecosystem. Our Metaverse marketplace has delivered hundreds of thousands of items to avatars belonging to more than 500 different virtual world systems.
