Vanu Gopal Bose (born 1965) is an American electrical engineer and technology executive.
He is the son of Amar Bose, the founder of Bose Corporation.
He graduated from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology with a BS in 1987, MS in 1994, and PhD in 1999. He is the founder and CEO of Vanu, Inc., a firm which markets software-defined radio technology. The company uses technology based on his graduate research work, called SpectrumWare, under supervisors David L. Tennenhouse and John Guttag. The technology was licensed from MIT in 1999 after several rounds of negotiation. In November 2004, its Anywave technology became the first use of software-defined radio certified by the US Federal Communications Commission, and ADC Telecommunications announced it would manufacture related hardware. In 2005, work with India's Centre for Development of Telematics (C-DOT) was announced to use its technology for base transceiver stations at cell sites in rural India. By 2008, a telecommunications provider in India was reported to be testing the technology.
A venture capital investment of $9 million in 2007 from Charles River Ventures was followed by $32 million in 2008, from an arm of the Tata Group, Norwest Venture Partners. A subsidiary, Vanu Coverage Company, announced $3.2 million investment in 2012.
He married Judith L. Hill in September 2007.
