Verizon is not commonly associated with terms like innovation, beta releases and rapid, iterative development cycles. How does a nimble start-up, mandated with developing products and services that are key to Verizon’s long term survival, survive and thrive within a large corporate dinosaur?
Joe Ambeault, Director, Product Development and Management, Video Services, talks about how Verizon is bringing Internet to the TV through Verizon’s FOIS TV service.
Joe’s group within the Verizon family has the corporate structure of a start-up within a large organization.
In his presentation, Joe talks about the framework within which his team develops new products that consumers want. Where are they now with the service? Where are they going?
The ultimate goal of the FOIS service is to give consumers a single, easy-to-use entry point to managing their TV and Internet video experience.
