After a 24-year career as Cisco's Chief Futurist that morphed into becoming the "evangelist" for Cisco's Internet of Everything (IoE), Dave Evans has become the co-founder and CTO of a Silicon Valley stealth start-up.

According to his LinkedIn Profile:

"An expert on emerging technologies, Evans holds numerous patents in the fields of connected car, RFID, virtual people, mobile phone technology and more. His visionary acumen has garnered global attention on topics such as the 'Internet of Everything' (IoE) and 'The Net Effect,' where he outlines IoE's transformational impact and the role of the network. Evans' views have been shared in Forbes, Fortune, CNN, San Jose Mercury News, New York Times, Nikkei, MSNBC, Discovery Channel, History Channel, as well as numerous other media outlets."

Interestingly, it was only 12-days ago on May 8, 2014 that Evans gave more of his thoughts on the Cisco Internet of Everything blog:
