Morten Jagd Christensen

My background is in theoretical mathematics and experimental solid state physics. However, I have been working within Tele- and Datacommunications for more than 10 years. During this time I have worked on all aspects of TCP/IP communications for consumer, professional and industrial products.

I have worked on many different aspects of business including system and network architectures, international collaboration, strategic marketing, standards work (IEEE, IETF and IEC), consultancy, business development, and have held several management roles.

People have described me as a highly creative and visionary person who believes in setting high goals.

I am a senior member of the IEEE and the author of RFC4541 on IGMP snooping switches. Currently I am involved in standards work within IEC. I am also in the evaluation panel for the Galileo Masters competition.
