Larry Press, Professor of Information Systems at California State University, Dominguez Hills, has been studying the global diffusion of the Internet, with an emphasis on policy and technology in developing nations, for over a decade. Dr. Press and his colleagues at the Mosaic Group developed an early framework to characterize the state of the Internet in a nation, and they, and others, have used this framework in many national case studies and surveys. This work has been supported by organizations including Rand, The International Telecommunication Union, SAIC, UNDP, UNCTAD, and the US State Department as well as governments in developing nations. Dr. Press was also an organizer and instructor in the World Bank/Internet Society workshops, which trained over 2,500 networking leaders from nearly every developing nation.

Dr. Press has worked in both industry and academia, consulted to a variety of industrial and multilateral organizations, and published numerous articles and reports. He has published two books, edited two book series, and been an editor or contributing editor for several magazines, trade publications and academic journals and periodicals. He has also received awards for excellence in teaching. His MBA and PhD in information processing are from UCLA.
