With a background in IT, Pat began his career in software development at Lotus. He then went on to become the Localization Manager at GeCAP, a localization company based in Germany. When GeCAP was eventually acquired Bowne Global Solution in 1997, he became one of the founding members of Vistatec.

For two decades now, it has been supporting some of the world's most iconic brands, helping them to optimize their global commercial potential.
