While working with the Infogate clients Loghos and Profitable on a project regarding table management software and online booking services for the restaurant industry opportunities to extend the project to the UK market came up. Needing someone managing web technology and development I was stationed at the Waterloo offices of Livebookings, a partner company to Profitable. We have since succesfully launched services for companies like Skyways, Eniro, DI, Daily Telegraph and some of the best restaurants in UK and Sweden such as Le Gavroche, Fifteen, Grill, Sturehof and Esperanto.

One of our early major clients in Infogate was The Swedish Golf Federation for who we and our partner Epani Systems AB developed business process tools to use at the golf courses along with a web site aimed towards the golfers. The concept was very succesful and rapidly exported to several countries in Europe. Sights were set for the biggest golfer market in the world, and Epani Inc was founded. I took position at Epani Inc, stationed in Orlando, to transfer the web related software and experiences we built working for the European golf federations.

August 1996 — June 1999 (2 years 11 months)
As I graduated from Halmstad University I started Infogate, a web design and web software development company focusing on developing tools for easier management of information and content in web sites, without need for specific technology skills such as knowing HTML, FTP or other obscure acronyms.

Evenings and nights were often used to get to know the mysterious Solaris machines in the computer lab where I with 24 hour access and at the time amazing connection to the Internet discovered Gopher, FSP, IRC, USENET News, Email, FTP, MUDs and MUCKs, network games and subsequently took part in building code and content on that cool new thing called "world wide web"...
This all lead to me and a few friends starting to lecture on the topics of using the Internet and email to teachers and students, and from there our business called Infogate sprung a few years later.
