Hi Everyone!

Here I am, excited about connecting with new peers on a P2P social platform - cool !!

I'm a middle aged dude with a sweet wife and 3 kids, a degree in operations research and a some 23 years of startup life experience in my baggage. The past few years, I have worked on B2B SaaS biz called iLocator.com. It's all about mapping and maintenance management of physical infrastructure assets. Think roads, rails, airfields, harbors, ultilities, telecoms.... Currently we are in Denmark, Germany and the UK with an initial focus on gullies, street sweeping and airfields.

I'm sure by now you are asking yourself, why the hell anyone would bother to get out of bed in the morning to do a stupid boring thing like mapping gullies and curb stones?
The answer to that is quite simple. OECD countries typically spend around 2% of GDP on the maintenance of existing infrastructure and there is a lot of potential for improvements in operational efficiency and more transparent trading of such services.

It's the good old story about making the transition from centralized, siloed and hierarchical to dezentralised, networked and transparent. Some call it smart cities, but oddly I take great pleasure in empowering the blue color guy on a gully truck or a sweeping machine with the tools and the information, that enables him to make independent decisions and get relevant things done faster.

It's late and I haven't figured out how to add images. Maybe someone can explain how that works?
I'll then get back to you with more a comprehensive intro.

I hope to see Steem spread like a wildfire and to make new interesting friends here :-)

Yours sincerely,
Niels Heeser NIelsen
