Bio
Hannes Árni
Eyþór has shown extraordinary skill in managing Skema, he manages to maintain a positive attitude towards his employees and still preserves the necessary authority for a project manager. Eyþór takes on whatever assignment comes to his mind and executes with excellence, he has very ambitious goals and accomplishes them in exceedingly creative ways. It's a pleasure to work with him, he's a great coworker and friend.

This summer I have had the great pleasure of working with Eyþór Máni on a language technology project with Deloitte, Almannarómur and the University of Reykjavík. I have seldom met someone as motivated and goal oriented as him. His drive and ambition is contagious to the ones who have the pleasure of getting to work with him. Eyþór Máni also has a rare ability to captivate an audience and keep them interested and invested in the topic at hand. He is incredibly articulate and well spoken. I would trust Eyþór Máni to lead and manage any project thrown his way and deliver an excellent result every time.
