About
This blog is mainly for posting stories that do not fit in my business blogs.
So who is Hans Blaauw?
I think I can say i’m an IT industry veteran. I have worked with IT technology a big part of my life (starting on school in 1985 when Autocad was introduced) and I started my first venture on school with one of my best friends. For us it was a kind of a Silicon Valley dream.
Over the years I have always been in touch with technology but became also more experienced in managing my own companies or external technology projects for some major customers. Innovation and integration are two keywords that popup all the time.
What have I worked on
Well, this is a whole list:
- interactive television (pre internet) for Veronica and others;
- first mobile chat application for the first data network in the Netherlands
- speech technology for wireless order picking
- software development in general
- SharePoint
- Skype (Developer Advisory Council)
- Wordpress
- Workflow automation
- Logistic automation
- Antivirus solutions
- Enterprise management tools
Some of the past and more recent customers
Rank Xerox, KLM, ProRail, INHOLLAND, Postkantoren, Nike, Essilor, Ericsson, Veronica, Pepperminds, N.A.T.O.
What is going on right now
Right now I am focusing on Innovation and Integration of technology in the broader sense but with a focus on mobile.
