When Ken Denman joined iPass in 2001, the company had never turned a profit and was facing stiff competition as a single-product remote access provider. He led the successful efforts to transform iPass into a world leader in platform-based enterprise mobility services.
During Ken's tenure, iPass has dramatically expanded its enterprise sales channels, Forbes 2000 customer penetration and international sales. In the first two years under his leadership, iPass doubled its revenues and achieved both positive cash flow and sustained profitability. He led a successful initial public offering in 2003, and three strategic acquisitions that significantly broadened the company's product portfolio, extended its technology foundation, and fortified its engineering capabilities.
Ken's career spans more than 20 years in the global telecommunications and IT industries. Before joining iPass, Ken founded AuraServ Communications, a managed service provider of broadband voice and data applications, and served as its President and CEO.
Earlier, he served as Senior Vice-President at MediaOne's National Markets Group. In that capacity, he led teams that exceeded new subscriber growth targets, reduced customer churn, created company-leading customer satisfaction improvement, and implemented a major network upgrade.
He also served as Chief Operating Officer of Media One's International Wireless Group, leading international joint ventures including Era GSM, which became Poland's leading wireless provider, and Westel 900, Hungary's leading wireless provider. As Vice-President and General Manager of Wholesale Wireless Markets at U S WEST, Ken tripled revenues in just two years.
Ken holds an M.B.A. from the University of Washington and a B.S. in Accounting from Central Washington University. |
