Liaisoning Strategist, Trend Spotter & Internet Enthusiast

About

I know you were wondering: The R.  stands for Robert, but please don’t call me Bob :)

Short version: I love all things related to the Internet, I’m a passionate trend spotter, I advocate common sense and the Internet of Things. Oh, and I’ve Co-founded (INC)3.

Now the not-so-short-about-me-page: Born in 1981 in Cluj-Napoca, Romania, into a great and pretty posh family. I’m what you could call all round european, since my mother is Hungarian and my father part French, part German. I don’t speak german nor french, although I pretty much understand both. I do however speak hungarian, italian and some spanish (not counting romanian and english here).

Fast forward to 2001 when I had my first contact with the business and tech world. This was also the year I started college (2001 -2008, Economic Studies – Management & Marketing) and the year I took on my first job, as an Internet Cafe attendant. Here I met Adrian Costin, that would later employ me as a Business Development Manager at SimpliQ, one of Romania’s best and brightest Datacenters.  I would later become its Executive Vice President and during my “presidency” we’ve done quite a few wonders in the market.

In July 2008 I’ve been offered a marketing position with Trilulilu, Romania’s #1 site and leading 2.0 startup. I used to be called the Marketing Crocodile and Portfolio Manager.

In June 2009 I resigned my position at Trilulilu and co-founded (INC)3, a new and social media liaisoning firm. Shortly afterward I’ve also joined Webfactor as Chief Marketing & Communications Officer, yet only for a brief three months.

That’s all related to my job history. I love technology, software, gadgets (I’m a real fool for gadgets!) and lately new and social media. I’m astonished by the power of social media and I enjoy advising people in regards to new and social media. Quite a few people seek my advice and I gladly help everyone out; I work on regular basis with individuals, companies and agencies on various social media related projects. If you want to know more about this, please check out the Work with me page.

I also need to mention that I support, endorse, promote and recomend only products that I use myself. I honestly believe that a personal recommandation is worth far more than any marketing or advertising campaign.

And of course I blog about the above. Not that often, but I intend do so as often as I can. I am however more active on twitter.
