Ottawa, ON, November 15, 2007 – Senior executives from image processing firm eSight Corp. and network performance software house IPeak Networks Inc. are featured on the November podcast of OCRIRadio.com. eSight’s Vice President of Marketing and Business Development, Rob Hilkes, and IPeak Networks’ founder, Matthew Williams, discuss venture capital investment opportunities offered by their respective companies on the second part of a two-part podcast series recorded live at OCRI’s Ottawa Venture and Technology Summit in September. Luigi Licciardi, Executive Vice President for Telecom Italia Group, rounds out the November podcasts with his interest in new mobile technologies emerging from Ottawa’s telecom sector.
- eSight combines breakthrough advances in digital video capture and display with proprietary image processing algorithms to serve two markets: wearable devices to greatly improve the quality of life for those with acute vision impairments that neither surgery nor traditional eyeglasses can correct, and real-time high-definition vision systems for sports fans and concert goers.
- IPeak’s IP 4000 accelerates applications over low quality networks in a unique way. Instead of intercepting and changing the protocols used by applications, IPeak reduces the packet loss seen by the application by a factor of 100x or more. This allows the application to perform as if a much higher quality network was being used.

Past guests on OCRIRadio.com include Steve Ballmer, CEO, Microsoft Andrew Waitman, Managing Partner, Celtic House Venture Partners and John Chambers, Chairman and CEO of Cisco Systems Inc.
