Kurt Roosen, Head of Innovation at Digital Isle of Man

Kurt Roosen, Head of Innovation at Digital Isle of Man

25/10/2023 Posted by Sharon Sutton Podcast

Welcome to episode 99 of the Island Influencers podcast!

My featured guest today is Kurt Roosen, a key figure in the realm of digital innovation on the Isle of Man.

Kurt’s life began unconventionally being born above a transport café in Birmingham, where he honed his communication skills through interactions with customers from a young age. His path took a unique turn when he decided to break the mould and pursue a university degree in Computer Science. This decision set the stage for his remarkable career.

With 35 years of experience in the field of Information Technology, Kurt’s current role as the Head of Innovation for Digital Isle of Man is a testament to his unwavering commitment to championing digital innovation and driving positive change.

As we delve into Kurt’s story, he not only shares his passion for digital innovation but also highlights two local treasures, the Family Library and the bibliotherapy service, both deserving of recognition and support. He also drops in that he is writing a book!

So if you’re eager to gain valuable insights from a true digital visionary who has made it his mission to make a difference in the world of technology and on the Isle of Man itself. Listen today to episode 99 of Island Influencers featuring Kurt Roosen.
