Dr. Axel Brinkop - Configuration Specialist
My passion is solving configuration problems. I started studying this topic more than 25 years ago. I researched this subject as a principal investigator during my time at Fraunhofer Gesellschaft. I learned the business aspects of software development and sales during my work with TDV and Access Commerce. Throughout this time I was managing industrial projects as well. Today, I'm facing the challenge of using my knowledge to help your company to reduce costs and raise turnover and revenue.
