Rare Qualities
Robert is quite simply one of the most inspiring people I have worked with and is a true visionary in every sense of the word. He really is a unique individual –someone who is well known and respected throughout the entire interactive industry. I feel extremely privileged to have worked with him.

HIS WORK REDEFINED TV
The label 'creative' has become so commonplace that it's lost its impact, but Robert is the real deal: his spark electrified every project at MTV. There were awards & accolades, but for me, the greatest accomplishment is how his work redefined the way TV was presented in Asia and opened the eyes of an Asian generation of 3 billion when satellite TV first beamed across Asia in 1991.

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