Blue Chip Tek, Inc. is one of Silicon Valley's leading system integrators, with a unique emphasis on Web 2.0 and high-tech manufacturing companies. BCT has a history of helping startup companies to grow, such as YouTube before acquisition by Google, Netli prior to acquisition by Akamai, Mozilla, Data Domain, and (most recently) OnLive, an industry-changing new entrant to the online gaming space.
