Entrepreneur Zach Bair is best known for starting entertainment technology company Immediatek and taking the company public in 2002. Immediatek (OTCBB: IMKI) was founded and grown to provide innovative solutions to enhance the revenues of artists and labels. The first flagship product Bair rolled out was NetBurn Secure, which was used by superstar JC Chasez of N’Sync to release his hit single, “Slept With My Best Friend’s Girl.” In 2004, Bair spearheaded the acquisition of DiscLive, then a fledgling media company based in New York. Through Bair’s leadership, DiscLive went on to receive worldwide attention from the music industry by offering a new revenue stream for artists and labels.

During his tenure, Bair conceptualized and spearheaded the rollout of “instant” multi-track CDs, DVDs, iPods, and more to the entertainment industry. In 2006, Bair sold Immediatek/DiscLive to Mark Cuban, staying on as CEO of both companies. After it was apparent Mr. Cuban had more interest in his own initiatives, Bair left the company he founded and formed Rockhouse Live Media Productions based on his strong industry relationships and innovative ideas, and immediately began regrouping for a full 2009 launch. During Bair’s tenure at Immediatek/DiscLive, he raised over $6 million in funding, rolled out numerous groudbreaking products, and leveraged global media coverage for achievements at Disclive.

Prior to Immediatek, Bair founded Voyence (previously PowerUp Networks), a technology company based on software of his design. He and his team raised over $12 million in funding in a Series A round. The company subsequently raised $40 million and is now owned by EMC.

Bair has been a speaker at NXNE and also a panelist and speaker at MIDEM. He has been interviewed by Billboard Magazine, The LA Times, Pollstar, NY Times, MTV News, Forbes, The Dallas Morning News, and has been featured in Entrepreneur Magazine twice. He is also a contributing columnist for The Commercial Appeal.
