Oliver Hersent

"Getting things to work (better)" is a passion that started early in Oliver's life repairing toys and building electronic circuits, and continued through his professional life working on communication technologies, with a focus on IP based networks. With the startup experience as founder of NetCentrex , he discovered that 'getting people to build something together' was even more rewarding... and more challenging. Any project which aims at improving the way we live or work, supported by hard working, ambitious, crazy (not too much), fun and caring people will make him want to be part of it. He invests in several start-ups and also his own projects. He also supports the Non-Profit organization "Socracy," which tries to bring some of the innovations of social networks to the world of politics.
