About Guest

Dan is a serial entrepreneur, having founded companies at the intersection of emerging media monetization and distribution for the past 15 years. Prior to entering the OTT Video Space, Dan co-founded a number of companies in the ad tech space. 

In 2008, Dan alongside Krish, launched Mojiva, a pioneering mobile ad network and Mocean Mobile, a market leading mobile ad technology platform which was acquired by Pubmatic/PUBM in 2014. 

After the Mojiva acquisition, Dan launched Dandelion, an ad platform for marketplaces which was acquired by Metric Collectic. Shortly after that, he launched Unreel.me in 2015, with the aim to make it super simple for content owners to build direct to consumer streaming services. Dan then joined the Board and developed strategic partnerships for POWR.tv, which was acquired by Bitcentral in early 2022. The company powers some of the biggest names in streaming including Pro Sieben’s S71, Blaze Media, Broadway on Demand, and dozens of others.

Replay CEO Krish Arvapally is a serial tech entrepreneur, having launched his first startup at 16. Krish co-founded and held CTO & CPO roles at Mojiva and MoceanMobile, where he pioneered the first mobile digital ads platforms generating over 10000+ QPS, which was acquired by Pubmatic (PUBM – NASDAQ); Krish was also the co-founder and CTO of Unreel – an OTT video streaming platform/stack for content owners recently acquired by Powr.TV (now acquired by BitCentral in Jan 2022), where he built core video infrastructure and live streaming systems. Most recently, Krish served as a co-founder at Nscreen.TV, a unique ContentPod video ad unit for CTV advertising.
