TX/01Billboard, The Hollywood Reporter

Robert Tercek ranks among the very best speakers I’ve ever encountered. His speeches on the topics of innovation and creativity have influenced industry leaders in many parts of the world. Mr Tercek is an electrifying public speaker. His passion for the subject matter is infectious. In just one hour, attendees gain a fresh perspective on the major trends that are transforming creativity and innovation in industries as diverse as media publishing, technology and telecommunications. More attendees have requested printed text from Mr.Tercek’s media and telecommunications keynote speeches than any other speaker. Mr Tercek was a lively and provocative speaker. He used humor and bold statements backed up with solid market data to stir the audience to reconsider some of the industry’s sacred cows. Several times his comments were punctuated by spontaneous applause from the floor. It is my pleasure to give Robert Tercek my highest recommendation as a keynote speaker. He will deliver valuable information and analysis in an inspiring and entertaining manner.

Robert, your talk was inspirational. Mythology, metaphor, magic, mystery -as you said so eloquently in your talk -give us the tools to nourish our selves as we play. Great, great stuff.

Robert is the reason I am in new media. After hearing him speak at a digital event many years ago, he inspired me to want to contribute to the industry. 8 years later I am still launching services in the new media sector. Thank you Robert.

TX/06Billboard Magazine

Rob Tercek prepared special talks for several Billboard digital entertainment events, including the Digital Entertainment Expo, and Mobile Entertainment Live. He consistently brings both passion and clarity of ideas to each appearance, which have included both solo presentations, moderating duties and panel appearances. In each case, Robert has always been very forward looking in his comments, supporting his predictions with multiple sources and analysis based on available research. His presentations are always fun, personable and easy-to-follow whether he’s just talking or supported by multimedia assets. As an aside, Tercek served as a valuable source of advice for building our conference topics... often recommending topics and speakers outside his area of individual participation.

TX/07Digital Media Wire, Inc.

It is rare that you find a speaker like Robert who is able to cover a broad topic, put recent developments into an historical context and provide deep and relevant insights into what factors will drive the industry’s future. Further, his speeches (and I have seen a few now) contain analysis backed up by solid research and market data, utilize rich multimedia graphics, and are delivered with infectious high energy and passion. His keynote speech was nothing short of excellent and drew from his 20 years of experience with cutting edge formats like mobile games and online games as well as social media, interactive television and traditional broadcasting. It is without hesitation that I recommend Robert as a keynoter speaker.

TX/08Storage Visions Conference

Robert Tercek delivered a talk at the 2011 Storage Visions Conference that was as technically insightful as it was visually stunning.

From the moment Robert got on stage the audience was fascinated and so was I. He conveys such magic and power through his words. His content, full of surprising references, was compelling, and the structure and exciting story of his lecture were remarkable. But most of all, what came across to the audience was his profound wisdom about life with all its failures and successes and the attendant lessons. Robert is a top level speaker who affects you so deeply that you will never forget his words.

Robert is a fantastic and engaging speaker. It takes a lot of courage to speak to a group of Chief Information Security Officers on the subject of the information explosion especially in this day and age. Robert not only brought a new business problem to light but with it, a refreshingly new perspective on ways to address it. The room was energized and awestruck by his presentation. Thanks Robert!

A poster child for "out of the box" creativity. If you want to turbocharge your creative, innovative thinking, think seriously of contacting Robert. Besides, if he's good enough for Oprah, he's probably good enough for you!

TX/18Vindigo Inc.

Thanks to Robert’s efforts, we had a highly successful "reboot" of our product pipeline that was well received by all of our distribution partners and the Board of Directors. He ran brainstorming sessions, design reviews, creative workshops and product design sessions along with roundtable discussions with the product and development teams. The result was that we revised the entire product lineup and set new delivery dates. Robert, myself and the senior management team then conducted near-term and long-term planning sessions for the release and marketing of the new product lineup, and we reviewed progress weekly against milestones. Very few individuals could have accomplished this. Robert’s level of professionalism and his passion to create market-leading digital products anywhere in the world are unparalleled. It is also important to note that self-motivated people enjoy working with Robert very much, and he can leave a profound long-lasting impact on a product team.
