Eric Jennings’ interest lies in distributed and concurrent systems, and collective intelligence.
He founded Loopshot, a custom development company building web applications for small startups to 50,000 healthcare firms.
Eric also founded The Registree, a startup that remakes the concept of Holiday and birthday gift-giving. It does this through a novel way of reserving gifts for those on a contact list. No more double-buying or needing to send Christmas lists to grandparents.
He was also the chief architect at MyShape, an online retail clothing startup based out of Los Angeles. He was responsible for building the initial prototype of MyShape’s patent-pending ShapeMatch matching algorithm, and then managed the architecture of MyShape’s larger software ecosystem.
He is now the co-founder and CTO of ToVieFor, a part-game, part-shopping experience where customers choose the price they want to pay for current-season, luxury accessories. ToVieFor was accepted to the 2011 NYC TechStars program, won the NYU Stern School Business Plan competition, and launched at 2010 TechCrunch Disrupt.
Eric’s techincal background is diverse. He has over 10 years experienced in developing web-based applications. He architected Protean, a PHP5 web application framework on which numerous production web applications are currently implemented. Eric also has experience in design and deployment of event-driven architectures and distributed systems, and is currently digging in deep with the Node.js platform.
