WEBPROOF INC.
TALLAHASSEE, FLORIDA

Jakob and Jan Adeltoft founded WebProof in Copenhagen to make graphic production simpler, more efficient, and better integrated. WebProof has helped companies such as Audi, Bang & Olufsen, and Carrefour improve their production processes and keep their costs down. Our clients come from over 100 countries, and they approve over 5 million pages each year. 1998, Jakob was working as a database programmer when he first heard about the difficulties in the graphic production industry. He was working for a company that collaborated with IBM translation teams in France, Spain, and Italy. He was concerned with how complicated the proofing process was and how much time it took. A problem-solver at heart, he built a solution. It was called WebProof, and the company was established as WebProof A/S. Today, WebProof works both as an online marketing collaboration and proofing platform and a cross-media publishing tool. By integrating with its own hot folder-based workflow, it has become the most automated workflow on the market. Jakob is a technical founder with strong entrepreneurial DNA. When he started working on WebProof, he was studying for a Master of Science in Engineering at the Technical University of Denmark. WebProof's success was so big and unexpected that he was forced quit so he could focus on this project. He has built a team of programmers with 11 nationalities, and he always looks for the best talent around the world. He now lives in the United States with his family so he can develop the U.S. branch of the company. Jan is a business founder with a technical background. He has a Bachelor of Science degree. He started his career in the graphic industry, where he got first-hand experience with the pitfalls of traditional document proofing. It was apparent to him that dealing with so many emails was ineffective, making it difficult to assign responsibilities and measure progress. He also saw how difficult it was to meet deadlines. This knowledge helped him see the potential in WebProof and moved him to invest in the company and become its CEO. Martin has been the chairman of the board for 15 years, and he has helped build WebProof A/S into a powerful business. He is one of the most respected IT lawyers in Scandinavia. He co-authored the first treatise on Danish Internet Law. He also co-founded the Danish E-Commerce Association, Internet Society DK, Creative Commons DK, Danish Open Source Vendors Association, and Quantified Self DK. Torben served as the director of e-conomic in 2008, and he helped the company grow from 15,000 customers to over 200,000. With his leadership, the e-conomic revolutionized the accounting industry for small and medium sized businesses, allowing collaboration without physical barriers. In 2013, e-conomic was sold to HgCapital. He is now Special Operations Director at HgCapital, where he works with TMT and Mercury teams to find talent in Europe. Niels has documented how large organizations can use WebProof to optimize their graphic production and establish effective routing workflows. He contributes his expertise on process optimization and workflow design to serve large companies better. He will also help determine the specifications required for new suppliers at large organizations. In 2009, WebProof was chosen as the best startup in Scandinavia by the Nordic Venture Forum.
