Founder / CEO

Irv Shapiro

As a senior executive with over 40 years of computer technology industry experience and deep technology and management expertise, I am passionate about the delivery of technology solutions that improve peoples lives. With my time commitment to DialogTech reduced, since moving from CEO to Chairman, I have been able to spend time on an exciting new project. The DrVax YouTube channel is designed to help boomers and curious people of any age who are interesting in learning more about the technologies our children and grandchildren are learning in their STEM classes and MakerLabs. DrVax consists of the drvax.com web site, the DrVax YouTube channel and a DrVax Facebook page. The DrVax mission is to empower retiring baby boomers to take control of their lives by learning how to be makers. With advances in technology that have driven fabrication tools; 3d printers, laser cutters, tabletop woodworking tools do to just hundreds of dollars and thousands of free tutorials on YouTube(r) every boomer has the power to become a creator for fun or profit. As the Executive Chairman of DialogTech, I work with as part of the board of directors to support the leading company highlighting the impact of calls on a customers journey. Before DialogTech, after spending ten years learning the computer industry by working for others, I have spent the last 20 years creating and selling computer technology companies. To date, I have built two companies which I sold to publicly traded entities. Metamor Technologies grew to over 500 employees, was a two time INC 500 award winner and was sold for a substantial multiple to Corestaff Inc. Edventions grew to 50 employees and was sold to Edison Schools. Also, I have worked for Fortune 500 companies and spent a year as the interim COO of a six hundred million dollar Wall Street hedge fund.
