"Our goal is to build an advisory board that includes
leading industry experts and business professionals, so we are honored to have Bill
Weinberg as a member of our
advisory board," noted Unicon Systems CEO Marius Kaz. “We
are eager to work with Bill to optimize and position our technology towards
next-generation mobile and consumer electronics markets, and to build both a user
community and partner ecosystem around our platform.”
Bill Weinberg brings two decades of open source, embedded
and open systems, telecommunications, and other technology experience to his
role as advisor to Unicon Systems. He also serves in an executive capacity at the
