TiVo's Matt Zinn Receives Silicon Valley Business Journal's 2014
Best Bay Area Corporate Counsel 'Judge's Choice' Award
Inaugural Award Given in Recognition of Zinn's Trailblazing
Regulatory Policy Work and Successful Defense of TiVo's
Intellectual Property
SAN JOSE, CA--(Marketwired - Mar 13, 2014) - TiVo Inc. (NASDAQ:
TIVO), a leader in the advanced television market, today announced
that Matt Zinn has been awarded the Silicon Valley Business
Journal's 2014 Best Bay Area Corporate Counsel "Judge's Choice"
Award. Zinn, TiVo's Senior Vice President, General Counsel,
Corporate Secretary & Chief Privacy Officer, is the first
recipient of the award, recognizing unprecedented achievements in
culmination of work that has had a game-changing impact on the
industry. The judging panel, which includes previous Best Bay Area
Corporate Counsel award winners from several categories, awarded
Zinn the honor for his extraordinary contributions to TiVo's
success, particularly in areas of intellectual property enforcement
and regulatory policy that has enabled TiVo to produce innovative,
award-winning products and provide choice to consumers and
multichannel video operators.
"It is hard to overstate the dramatic impact Matt has had on
TiVo's business," said TiVo's President and CEO Tom Rogers. "During
his tenure as General Counsel at TiVo, he has successfully fought
to defend TiVo's business against competitors who have deployed
DVRs using TiVo's patented technology without permission and
continues to lead our charge in Washington, DC, to ensure a
regulatory framework that allows consumers to have retail
alternatives to operator-leased devices to receive multichannel
video programming devices against special interests that seek to
eliminate consumer choice. Matt has been responsible for a series
of litigation settlements over the past several years, each worth
several hundreds of millions of dollars as a part of an enforcement
program that has resulted in a total of more than $1.6 billion
dollars in guaranteed payments for TiVo. It is fair to say that
TiVo would not be the company it is today without Matt's
efforts."
TiVo's litigation successes under Zinn's leadership provide an
extremely rare example of a legal department playing such a
critical role in the company's success and where the role of
general counsel has been so meaningful to the bottom line.
Zinn's early role with the company was also very important, as
he guided TiVo through a dynamic legal landscape and helped the
company make smart product and business decisions that allowed TiVo
to innovate and bring new technology and functionality to consumers
without being sued out of existence -- in contrast to competitive
products like ReplayTV.
The award ceremony will take place Thursday, March 13th at 5:30
pm at Sofitel San Francisco Bay in Redwood Shores, CA. Opening
remarks will be made by publishers of the Silicon Valley Business
Journal, James MacGregor & Mary Huss. Prior to the marquee
'Judge's Choice' award, honorees will be recognized for exceptional
legal accomplishments in the following categories; Labor &
Employment, General Counsel - Large Public Company, Diversity
Champion, IP law, Community Champion, General Counsel - Private
Company, General Counsel - Small Public Company and Rising
Star.
