Ed Guy started his career at General Electric and Digital Equipment but joined the VoIP industry right at its inception. He worked initially with Bellcore/Telcordia and then moved to Pulver.com where he built and launched Freeworld DialUp – the world’s first network to offer free voice calls over the Internet. The ensuing furore lead to the Pulver Act which has ensured net neutrality for communications companies over the last 20 years. He is therefore considered one of the fathers of VoIP. He founded IPeerx, the VoIP peering exchange, in 2000 which was sold in 2006. He was Chief Architect for Truphone from 2006 to 2014 and more recently has been CTO of a medical communications and AI company. He has served as a VoIP instructor to Internet2.0 community and FCC and, authored RFC 5456 and related RFCs. He holds a PhD in Computer Engineering and has extensive experience in network-based, large-scale & highly-available voice and data systems.
