Time: 13.00-16.00 Tuesday, 8. Nov 2011

Biography

Martin was one of the first innovators in content management systems and software in the 1990s. His work resulted in patent approval for a novel method to install and encrypt a content management system (CMS) using a network of servers and rapid distribution.

Based upon his innovations, Martin co-founded Synkron in 1997 . It was the first company in the world to recognize the need for a modular CMS and shipped its first products in 1998. The CMS also featured high security against piracy and was never hacked.

Ten years later, the company was sold successfully to its competitor. Synkron had subsidiaries in Denmark, Germany, Switzerland and Norway and partners in France, England and Indonesia. Customers included Bang & Olufsen, International Red Cross, Saint-Gobain, and the Danish government.  Martin served as Synkron’s CEO from 1997-2000 and the CTO from 2000-2008.

Martin is now CEO at the digital agency Klean. He studied Information and Media Science at Aarhus University.
