We spoke with Phil Ressler--a former venture capitalist from Clearstone Ventures--who is now CEO of BigStage. For What we've done, is we've taken technology originally developed at USC, a CIA funded project, and gained global commercial rights for the non-security sector. I had gone into Clearstone at their invitiation, and had a really exciting time, and the experiment lasted longer than expected. Pasadena-based BigStage (www.bigstage.com) is one of those rare companies that has taken technology developed from university research, and is now bringing that technology to the commercial market.
