'Knowing Now' feeds the need for ubiquity, instant infrastructure, and always on products and services. Alice Taylor describes her experiences as both an intrapreneur and an entrepreneur creating next generation solutions in telematics, mobile health, casual games and entertainment.

Alice Taylor is a strategic planning executive and new venture consultant who focuses on identifying and quantifying new markets, creating business plans and strategic roadmaps, and guiding new ventures from idea stage to market roll-out. Some of her most recent projects include working with the University of Southern California’s Institute for Creative Technologies and a veteran-owned start-up to create mobile apps using virtual humans.

Prior to her consulting work, Taylor was the Director of Strategy and Business Development for Boeing’s Homeland Security and Services Group. She is a graduate of the University of Michigan at Ann Arbor.
