MSCorp is a leader in mobile innovation in Latin America, a Forum Nokia Pro member, with a strong track record of implementation on mobile video streaming, for-mobile productions and content distribution. The company maintains a solid distribution network with carriers, as well as a strong partnership with Nokia in the region.

In 2007 his organization launched Ideas Lite, a spin-off devoted to Flash Lite development and distribution. Ideas Lite has already proved itself as a major player in the Flash Lite ecosystem, by launching successful applications, such as City Lite, the Global winner of the Forum Nokia Code Camp Competition 2008 in the Flash category.

In the US, he worked for Nokia’s Latin American marketing agencies, which allowed him to get an advantage point of view about the new things to come in the mobile world.
