In 1999, Powell began working for CablePulse 24 as a business reporter and founded media and consulting company Powell International Entertainment Inc. (PIE Inc.) which produced features with personalities such as Nelson Mandela, Rubin 'Hurricane' Carter, Sir Richard Branson, Tim Burton, Steven Spielberg, Tom Cruise, Janet Jackson, Tina Turner, and Prince Charles.

Powell's live commentary on NBC, CNN, ABC, BBC, BNN and combined TV appearances and columns for Bloomberg raised business and ethical issues stemming from social media, including privacy, cybersecurity, and bias.
