Pablo Bertorello

Pablo Rodriguez Bertorello (born October 12, 1971) is an American software entrepreneur and inventor. Bertorello created Verosee, the first file-sharing application for Skype, as well as their first Movie platform--achieving over two and a half million users. He is the author of 12 patents.

Early life
Bertorello was born and grew up in Argentina. He met his wife while pursuing his Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. They have been married since 1995, and have two children.

After nine years in the U.S., including several at Intel, he returned to Argentina to launch a start-up company. Since then, he has contributed to his blog focused on revealing the essence of innovation.

Bertorello enjoys racing high performance sailboats, flying airplanes, and riding horses.

Career
In 2007, Bertorello with Sean Fee co-founded WishAdder.com, a website where families share their wish lists. He is also behind Descubrimos.com, a social shopping site serving half a billion Spanish speakers worldwide. Previously, Bertorello created Verosee (code named SkySpace), a file sharing and social network software "Extra" for Skype users. (Nevertheless, he has always been an outspoken critic of Skype's "love-Ate" relationship with partners, as has been GigaOM.) Bertorello was an early general manager for Telephony@Work, a company acquired by Oracle.
