Colin Kelly, MBA ’11, is the president and co-founder of a start-up, mobile technology company called VueQue.  VueQue provides a service that allows customers to opt in to watch video advertisements on their terms. Customers then earn cash back rewards for the time they spend watching video ads.  Ultimately, the service will call up video ads that are most relevant to customers’ interests to create a more enjoyable shopping experience.

Customers can use the service on either desktop or mobile phone. An app for the service can be installed directly from the company website at www.vueque.com.

Colin developed the technology as part of a team of five over the past year. The site just launched and is welcoming new customers to sign up. Colin attributes the success of this launch to the education he received from the tremendous faculty and staff from the McCombs School of Business.
