Mr. Perkins has been a long time member of the Academy of Television Arts and Sciences and has served on its Board of Governors. In addition to serving on the Board of Directors of Netter Digital Inc and Mainframe, he has also been a long-time member of the Hollywood Radio and Television Society and served on its Board of Directors.
Since January 2001, Rowland Perkins has served as Chairman of NPOWR Digital Media, Inc., in Oxnard, California, which owns an array of patented database technologies and is currently developing innovative streaming technology to create the first truly personalized television-like viewing experience on the web.
