Jim Louderback Biography

With more than 20 years of experience in consulting, technology, computers, and media, Jim Louderback has been at the forefront of many groundbreaking innovations. Over the years, Louderback has held various roles in media companies involved with technology, such as TechTV and PC Magazine. He is perhaps best known as the television host of TechTV's "Fresh Gear." Louderback is the editor and publisher of Inside the Creator Economy, the premier email newsletter for creators, influencers, platforms, and business professionals.

In the 1980s, while working on computer systems for Fortune 100 companies, Louderback devised innovative client-server computing models, executing some of the earliest successful LAN-based client-server systems. He also designed a highly effective iterative development methodology specifically tailored to this new system architecture.

As Lab Director at PC Week, Louderback refined the product review as an essential news story. He expanded the lab to California, creating a significant competitive advantage for the leading IT weekly. Louderback's leadership also extended into print media as the former PC Magazine-in-chief and Windows Sources editor-in-chief. When he took over Windows Sources in 1995, he completely revamped the publication, focusing on Windows 95. This resulted in a tripling of newsstand sales, and the magazine won industry awards for excellence in design and content.

In 1997, Louderback launched TechTV’s content, curating a successful blend of help, product information, news, and entertainment. He was a regular presence on the network, and for three years, he hosted the widely popular Fresh Gear show. Two years later, he partnered with CEA, the parent company of the CES trade show, to develop the "Best of CES" awards program. This innovative program judged new products directly on the trade show floor and was a resounding success, continuing to this day.

In 2000, Louderback created "TechLive," a daily, live, 8-hour TechTV news program. Known as “the CNBC of Technology,” TechLive provided daily market news, product information, technology reporting, and CEO interviews. After its successful launch in April 2001, Louderback managed the entire organization and set the editorial direction for TechTV.

Louderback served as the CEO of Revision3 and later became the CEO of VidCon in 2017, replacing co-founder Hank Green. As an author, Louderback has contributed to the book "TechTV Microsoft(R) Windows XP for Home Users" and has been a featured contributor to the CoolHotNot website as a "CoolHotNot Tech Xpert." His diverse experience and extensive knowledge make him a prominent technology and media industry figure.
