Christophe Lauer’s Summary

More than 15 years of experience in Software Development, Consulting and Technical Evangelism, mostly on and about the Web.

Working with and "on" the web for many many years. I'm a huge consumer of web based services (call them Web 2.0 if you like the term), I have developed a strong digital identity, but not only.

Working at Microsoft France for 7+ years, I'm in charge of Business Development with Web Agencies and Web focused partners. Consider me as your account manager if you actually work for a web agency, as I'll do my best to help you win projects and grow your business using our tools and technologies.

I'm always happy and willing to speak and discuss, so feel free to contact me.

Christophe Lauer’s Specialties:

Technical expertise in domains like Web technologies, Web development platforms - this obviously mainly on the Microsoft platform, but not limited to.

Also expertise in the usage area: I pretend that I can define obscur terms as "Web 2.0" or "RIA". Blogging, online tools, social networks are things I know quite well.
