Thomas Marban’s Summary
i'm an entrepreneur in the sphere of technology, design and people.
i co-founded the austrian company celum at the age of 19 which today is a market leader in enterprise digital media asset management. i sold my share in 2007 and founded the one-man brand tomatic, a company focused on funding and creating micro web properties.
in 2006 i created popurls, a dashboard to the realtime-web that became one of the most popular sites of all time and received a webby for enabling real world activities online.
if it's about the web i'm all over it. i believe in the web-enabled paradigm shift in business, media and society that implies authenticity, transparency & involvement.
