Ivo Rothschild's 20 year career in the software industry began while still at University in Montreal. As an undergraduate he founded The Hutchison Avenue Software Corporation.

In just a few years Hutchison grew from two people borrowing time in the student computer science lab, to a 30-person company with clients such as The Wall St. Journal, Bell Canada, Hewlett-Packard and Canada Trust. During this time Mr. Rothschild was lead software architect, and was able to assemble a highly respected team featuring the best of the brightest graduating from McGill University.

In 1999, Hutchison was purchased by Intuit.

Although "retired", Mr. Rothschild continued to develop software on a freelance basis. In 2003-2004 he developed a highly complex work-flow system for Right Party Connect, Pty (RPC) in Sydney, Australia. Thanks in large part to this software, RPC was purchased by Adeptra, Ltd., the largest provider of two-way alerting products in the world.

Although working on large, real-time, high-volume systems has been the focus of Mr. Rothschild's career, he has always maintained an interest in gaming software. His latest effort in this area is a port of the very popular Aargon game to the iPhone.

Mr. Rothschild is a graduate of McGill University.
