Jonathan Glaser is a tech entrepreneur. An economist by education, Glaser started his career in investment management and currency trading at Safra Bank in New York City, followed by multiple tech startups in New York, London and Sydney.

In the 1990s, Glaser founded tech startup New World Technologies for direct catalogue and later online sales of Psion, Palm Pilot and other PDAs, growing the company into the most prominent US direct catalogue reseller of PDAs and partnering with industry leaders like Symbian, Psion, Palm, and TomTom to increase their direct-to-customer sales.

In 1998 he created the world's first mobile app store, Braindock[1][2], listing it on the London Stock Exchange in June 2000[3]. Braindock provided and managed a white label for the app store for Dixons[4][5], the largest global electronics retailer, and Psion and Symbian[6], the incumbent smartphone OS of the time.

Moving to Sydney he created the digital content company, Stiletto Moody, which became the largest content creator of 3D digital products[7] for the online community Second Life. Glaser and Stiletto Moody have been the subject of Forbes[8] and the New York Times[9] articles.
