BENNER

As an e-Engineer, educator, and entrepreneur, I provides consultancy and mentoring services, and access to some of the best minds in New Zealand and overseas, through a network built up over 47 years in IT and related industries... While many of my years have been with startups, I have also worked in the corporate space, for IBM as Technical Marketing Manager for Petroleum Retail in the Asis pacific region, and for Borland Software as a Programmer Trainer and Consultant. I worked alongside many of the major Oil companies as a supplier and consultant... My work in startups has been with electronic and software development since the early 70's. In the 80's I drove the standardisation of equipment interface protocols in the NZ Oil Industry service stations, and founded two successful businesses supplying fuel pump management systems and software.
