Scott Kveton is a co-founder of Urban Airship, a mobile services platform provider in Portland, Oregon. He is widely recognized as an expert on mobile app strategy and cloud infrastructure. He speaks frequently on app monetization, engagement and the developer ecosystems around the various mobile platforms.

Under Kveton’s leadership over the last 5 years, Urban Airship has added customers, employees and accolades at a rapid pace. The company powers some of the most successful brands in mobile, including ESPN, Tapulous, Groupon, dictionary.com, msnbc.com and Newsweek. Urban Airship’s flagship offerings—push notifications and in-app purchase—help apps gain success by increasing user engagement and delivering a path to monetization. As of March, the venture-backed start-up has delivered billions of push notifications across the Apple, Android and Blackberry platforms while enabling more millions of in-app mobile transactions.

He also co-founded the Open Source Lab (OSL) at Oregon State University. OSL was instrumental in helping several open source projects grow into mainstream usage, including the Mozilla Foundation, the Linux Kernel and Drupal. In recognition of his work at OSL and with the OpenID Foundation, Scott was named Red Herring’s list of ’25 Titans in waiting’ in early 2007 and Information Week’s ‘Change Agents’ in December 2005.
