Anthony Bay co-founded MOD Systems in 2005 and brings more than 25 years of executive expertise, technology management and private-venture investor experience to his current role as the company’s executive chairman.

Previously, Bay served as the executive chairman of Loudeye Corporation (formerly NASDAQ: LOUD), which was acquired in 2006 by Nokia and now powers Nokia’s global music service, OVI. 

Before joining Loudeye, Bay spent six years with Microsoft, serving in various executive capacities, most recently as corporate vice president and general manager of the Digital Media Division, and as a member of Microsoft's executive staff.   He was responsible for Window Media, multimedia and digital rights management (DRM) technologies, overseeing a team of 700 and a research and development budget of more than $125M.

Previously, Bay served as general manager of Microsoft's Commercial Systems Division where he was responsible for much of the company’s Internet services and e-Commerce platform.  He also managed the development organization that shipped the original version of MSN with Windows 95.

Bay also spent eight years at Apple Computer. Three of those years were spent at Apple's European headquarters in Paris. He served as general manager of Apple's Online Services in Europe, general manager for Enterprise Systems Europe, and product line manager for Apple's Workgroup Systems.

Bay sits on the board of CMGI (NASDAQ: CMGI) and chairs its technology committee, which governs its @Ventures VC subsidiary.

Bay earned a bachelor’s degree from the University of California Los Angeles, an MBA from California State University San Jose, and studied at INSEAD in Paris, France, and at Goerg-August Universitaet in Goettingen, Germany.
