Biography
Mr. Rad started his career at a start-up software company
developing and implementing financial management systems. Following the
sale of the business in 1985, he started an Apple Macintosh dealership
that quickly became the UK's second largest Macintosh reseller. Mr. Rad
then joined Blyth Software, developers of the Omnis application
development system, and led the company's expansion into seven European
countries and the US. Mr. Rad says: "I was fortunate to have been
supported by a very talented and focused team of management and staff,
and together we made Omnis the best-selling database system for the
Macintosh in the US, UK, France and Germany". Mr. Rad was one of the
driving forces behind Blyth's continued growth and finally its
successful floatation on the NASDAQ market in 1989.
Mr. Rad then went on to found Caspian in 1990 and for
thirteen years maintained a small, highly-focused team that successfully
developed and implemented the Caspian suite of CRM software in the UK.
The organization's client base included many national and international
commercial companies, such as Natwest Markets, Goodyear, Motorola,
ScottishPower, Penguin Publishing, Kingspan plc, Newstar and
more.
The relationship between ASI and Caspian began in 1996 and
culminated with ASI acquiring Caspian in April 2004, as part of its
global expansion programme.
