About me:

I am an entrepreneur. I used to work for MySpace, running the international (non-US) business, and was responsible for building the business from 10MM to 66MM active users. I live in Menlo Park these days with my wife, daughter and son. I love travelling. I am a music junkie, I love politics, technology and hanging out with friends. Here are links to some previous interviews from my MySpace days: Travis Katz speaks with Kara Swisher at the Monaco Media Forum Video Interview with Travis Katz by Mike Butcher at TechCrunch in Barcelona Travis Katz Interviewed by Rory Cellan-Jones at the BBC Business Week Article about MySpace's growth in Europe

  • Travis Katz Lesson learned: if you need to rent a car, avoid Enterprise. They rented me a lemon and don't think replacing it is their problem.
