Ramin Erfanian, CEO of Vivital Enterprises, has over 24 years of experience in the field of software development and IT. He started writing BASIC programs on a ZX Spectrum around 1981 and continued learning programming languages in London, where he took a pre-university course to learn Pascal and C. In the late 1980s, Ramin became acquainted with the object-oriented paradigm and a Windows system known as X-Windows. He started developing MS Windows applications prior to the release of Windows 3.0, a milestone in the world of desktop computing. This development introduced Ramin to a fairly new language, called C++. In 1992, he became a member of the prestigious ANSI C++ and WG21, a C++ standardization committee. In 1993, Ramin developed the first educational CD, called “English Coach” and following the success of the first application, he developed a second one, called “Persian Coach”. The latter, would be the first multimedia application to teach the language of Farsi. Ramin was also the Chief Technology Officer (CTO) of a major online gaming company, an e-Commerce Company, and the Director of Engineering for a very successful ASP provider in the United States.   Kaveh Mirtahmasebi is an Advisory Board member with Vivital. He has been in the field of software development for over 15 years. He started as a programmer and, after five years, he set up his own company PSI2000 (www.psi2000.com). PSI2000 is providing health and safety solutions to over 100 private and public organisations in the UK and is in the process of merging with a service provider company. Kaveh will be advising Vivital's senior management on the European marketplace.
