CV and Statement:

Mr. Yustein began his international computer networking experience with Euronet, Globalnet and FidoNet in Europe. He served as a nominating committee member for ISOC BoT elections in 1996. He is the first member in ISOC who founded two local chapters.

Mr. Yustein also served as a Regional Director for Microsoft. Mr. Yustein worked as an Internet consultant for different companies in the USA, UK, Germany, Holland and Canada including AT&T Europe. He presented many speeches in international conferences including INET. Mr. Yustein is now employed as the CEO of SoftCom Technology Consulting Inc. in Toronto, Canada. SoftCom is the provider of many Internet solution packages including the innovative Mail2Web.Com and News2Web.Com gateways. SoftCom also provides solutions for multi vehicle tracking with GPS (Global Positioning System), and Wireless Application Protocol (WAP) applications and gateways. SoftCom is also a Sustaining Gold Member of ISOC and a member of ARIN (American Registry for Internet Numbers). SoftCom sponsored many non profit incentives including the International Forum On The White Pager in Geneva, Switzerland and the new DNSO.

As an ISOC Trustee, I believe that I can help to build a bridge of communication and coordination between the commercial Internet sector and regulatory bodies. In my opinion the companies and individuals in this sector can not protect their interests well enough due to a lack of representation in the key organizations like ISOC. I am willing to bring the everyday, real life problems of the companies and individuals in this sector to the table and seek solutions to them with the coordination of BoT. I believe a more dynamic and active BoT can help ISOC accomplish its goals, as well as, voicing companies' and individuals' needs more effectively. I have the resources and I'm willing to put whatever effort necessary to accomplish these tasks as a Trustee if I'm elected.

Regards,
Tony Yustein
