  Groworld develops compostable growing media for green houses Our growing media are used for production of tomatoes, cucumbers and peppers in greenhouses. We are planing on developing more growing media for other cultures. Our products are based on sustainable and natural wood fibers from FSC/PFEC certified woods. The production of Groworld growing media is close to carbon neutral because the energy that is generated originates from residual products. The Groworld products are mainly based on carbon neutral and biodegradable materials and can form part of the circular bio economy. Therefore our products are both sustainable and climate friendly alternatives to existing growing media on market. Groworld was founded in 2020 – The idea originates from practical experience and knowledge which the founder Gert Larsen has been collecting through 50 years of growing different kinds of horticultures. Gert Larsen has previously received the innovative price from Agro business park for developing the growing substrate Perlite. On the current stage our growing media is going through development and testing in several nurseries. Are you a greenhouse grower who is interested in testing our products - for more info please contact us on info@groworld.com. Show less

• Business Unit Manager Automation

  • Aug 2008 - May 2012

  The business unit of Automation develops automation software for engineering firms with more than 200 partners in numerous countries. A new aggressive global strategy for the product branded as IGSS - Interactive Graphical SCADA System – is implemented. The new strategy focuses on developing IGSS further in order to achieve a higher profile in a market where many rivals. The strategy has opened up significant new markets in the Americas, Europe and Asia in an efficient manner via a new online marketing and online sales concept. This concept becomes the engine of growth over the next five years. Additionally, the unique online concepts are used in an innovative product development within "Cloud Computing". I've been an instigator to develop this strategy with innovative concepts in an industry that is mostly characterized by being conservative with the unwillingness to change. These innovations have "locked up markets" and opened up new ways to develop IGSS commercially. This has already yielded IGSS an edge and is expected to lead to a lasting competitive advantage.
