Niantic

Mr. Téllez serves as VP Strategic Partnerships at Niantic, the publisher of Pokémon GO, Harry Potter Wizards Unite and Ingress. Niantic’s augmented reality platform provides dynamic ways to connect digital information, objects, and experiences with the physical world in situ as users experience them. At Niantic, we believe that the intersection of geospatial technology, real world gaming, and planet-scale augmented reality, can transform the mundane into something more colorful and fun, and can provide a useful nudge to go off and see new places and meet new people.

Mr. Téllez has served on the boards of Tenor (acquired by Google) and Moovit (Sequoia Capital) where he was their President. Prior to Moovit, Mr. Téllez was the CMO/EVP Business Development for Synchronoss Technologies the best software IPO of 2006 (Goldman Sachs, Deutsche Bank).
