About Dan Wagner
Dan Wagner has set up numerous technology businesses since the early 1980s and he continues to strive to bring innovative technologies to market. Dan started in 1984 and set up the first online information platform (MAID) which initially licensed content from the major newspapers and magazines to sell their content online. Because this was 1984, Dan was able to secure exclusive agreements and this helped him grind out a unique position when bigger companies like Reuters and Dow Jones entered the market in 1987. MAID went on to become the global market leader before it was sold to Thomson (now Thomson Reuters). Dan's second company (Venda) was a pioneer in enterprise eCommerce and was founded in 1998. Venda created a cloud or on demand commerce platform that went on to run major retail customers' eCommerce sites (including Lands End, Tesco, BooHoo, TJX Companies, Nieman Marcus and many more) and was sold to Oracle in 2014 after becoming European market leader. Dan's current business, Rezolve, is positioned to drive a new paradigm in mobile engagement by using the capabilities of the mobile device to enable a new and superior way to connect with consumers.
