Tristan Rogers first captured the public eye in the mid-1990s with the launch of a highly successful web design company that soon counted both The Royal Mail and drinks giant Diageo amongst its big-name clients. Following a number of high-profile achievements in this sector (and having successfully survived the dotcom crash), Tristan was approached in 2000 to set up a UK office for France's then-largest independent web agency.

Tristan went on to start Concrete in 2004, to explore web based application development and Software as a Service, then a brand new commercial model for software sales. In 2005 he decided to invest additional funds in the company in order to transform Concrete into the world's first enterprise collaboration platform for the retail sector. Customers onboard included M&S, Debenhams and Clarks.

Today, the company continues to excel by sharing its expertise in enterprise collaboration and business re-engineering with retail clients that are looking to reduce the time and cost-to-market of merchandise and marketing collateral.

When he's not busy managing Concrete's unstoppable growth, Tristan's other interests include sartoria, motor racing, car design, food and drink, and laughing. 

Andrzej has earned a strong reputation for his extensive work with cloud-based IT solutions that are both robust yet flexible.  Before joining Tristan to build Concrete back in 2004, Andrzej spent five years as the Head of IT for Guinness World Records, the company behind the best-selling books, television programmes, and live events that have sustained a global audience of loyal customers for nearly 60 years. Before that he worked as a lead on special interactive publication projects with The Economist and Oxford University Press.

At Concrete, Andrzej is responsible for the strategic development of ConcretePlatform, the world's first Enterprise Collaboration Platform for the retail market. Andrzej is also responsible for shaping the future generations of the platform, taking advantage of new technologies to bring and test concepts through the prototyping stage, ready for production.

He is a firm advocate of 'form follows function' which extends well beyond software and into print, typography and industrial design. Such passions do have their drawbacks: it took six weeks to track down the perfect coffee cup for the office...

Having spent twenty years assisting organisations realise the benefits of Technology, Robin was attracted to ConcretePlatform by the ease with which it solves B2B trading challenges in the cloud via a consumer-grade interface.
