Larry Honig is a technology entrepreneur. He's been on the research staff of MIT's Lincoln Laboratory, and was the head of financial applications software development for Data Resources, Inc. He was one of Gartner Group's earliest employees and started their consulting division (where he published The Data Processing Top 100, and helped Lotus introduce 1-2-3.) He founded and ran a software development company in the 1980s. In the mid-90s, he invented and co-patented one of the first internet-controllable camera systems. Based on that concept, he founded, raised funding for, ran and eventually sold Basic Telepresence, Inc. to a group of investors.

Honig is presently a contributing editor to Broadcasting & Cable magazine, where he writes about digital startups and spectrum policy. He regularly consults for a variety of venture funds and major corporations on investments in technology and issues most neatly described as 'futurism.'

Honig has a degree from the University of Michigan in Cartography/Physical Geography. He's been a long-time board member and advisor to LAC, and serves as Principal in LAC's New Venture area. He's based in Boston.
