Why I 
Tech
“
Technology enables and pushes people and enterprises to reinvent themselves and the processes around their products and services. It requires courage and imagination to see what could be and bring it to life for the first time. This process is exciting, messy and allows people to learn and grow in a collective. There is nothing better than building a product with a team where every individual contributes with a unique gift and creates something bigger than her- or himself.

It is exciting to see Virtual- and Augmented Reality grow out of the hype into an industry and new forms of Human-Machine Interaction becoming state of the art in our cars and living rooms.
