Andy Voss is a co-founder, President & CEO of Sansay, Inc., a leading provider of VoIP infrastructure to service providers worldwide.
Andy co-founded Nuera Communications (News - Alert) in 1995, where serving as VP of marketing including product management, he led the initiative to develop carrier packet voice systems and to build the first
deployable carrier grade VoIP gateways, later serving as VP of strategy and business development.
Voss offers the following take on the significance of IP Communications: We have enjoyed a reverse Wal-Mart Effect in our industry over the past several decades.
Many more options now exist for data/tele-communications industry workers to pursue entrepreneurial dreams than have ever existed (other than perhaps an exceptional period in the late 1990s).
I can attest that it is possible to start a company and build a solid company with little or no VC funding, using expertise instead of cash, building on standards to interoperate with a broad range of complementary and competitive solutions, and by leveraging rather than replicating huge investments which have already been made by other companies.
Which is why one of our customers claims that in the VoIP world versus the PSTN, whether anyone likes it or not, it is a democracy now.
