In order to further develop the group's technologies in preparation for global expansion, Tom Grünheit will become Head of Development and Styrmir Saevarsson will become Lead System Architect. They will support Vitali Strasser, SVP Technology. "We are pleased that two immensely experienced software developers will be driving progress in our core competencies - technological knowledge, usability and the development of innovative technologies," says Reinhold M. Sigler, Managing Director of the Peaches Group. Since successfully completing their studies in information technology, Grünheit and Saevarsson have held similar positions at other technology companies. A year ago they worked together to develop the online 'current balance query' system, and since then have been working with the Peaches Group on the launch of 'Prelado' - prepaid anytime & anywhere.
Tom Grunheit says, "Our previous work with the Peaches Group always took place in a positive and innovative atmosphere. We are very happy that we will be able to continue to support the technological expansion of the Peaches Group". Grünheit (aged 34) and Saevarsson (aged 38) will be primarily responsible for the development of the Isoptera multifunctional prepaid service platform.
"I am very pleased to have such highly qualified developers in the team to help speed up the development of Isoptera. The purchase of the Gutigs technology allows the Peaches Group to take another step forward in terms of its technologies and will ease the process of global expansion," says Vitali Strasser, SVP Technology at Peaches Group.
