Bio
Egon Minar
I have closely worked with David Lisewski for almost 4 years as a key shareholder representative. David has played a very important role as link between our shareholders and our management team. He has very well represented the shareholders interests but he has also been very supportive to me and our management team to solve problems and to help us to get the required additional funds to overcome our difficult financial situation. David has always shown a very good and comprehensive understanding of the market environment and our major challenges and has come up with very constructive ideas and recommendations. David has strongly supported the Navigon sales process that has been successfully concluded in mid 2011. I have very much enjoyed working with David and can really recommend him for any kind of management responsibility on investor side and also for company management.
