Erik Starck’s Experience

  • Managing Director

    GlocalReach Ltd

    (Privately Held; 1-10 employees; Telecommunications industry)

    April 2007Present (1 year 4 months)

    GlocalReach is building a communication platform that will help you manage how people can reach you.

    Since the mobile phone is a personal device, the phone number is also personal. We think it's time to separate the two. That way, how you can be reached, where, by whom and when will be easier to manage.

    The world is a stage and GlocalReach will help you play as many parts as you like. That is our mission.

    Oh, and we also want to make phone calls more expensive! Find out how at http://www.glocalreach.com/
