Bio

I've been working in the Document Management field for over 15 years, and have worked with FileNet, Documentum, and SharePoint in three different countries. (Prior to this I worked as a Microbiologist/Chemical Technician.) The industries I have worked in include: Legal, Engineering, Construction, Pharmaceutical, Finance, Airline, and Government. Currently also excited about the opportunities Enterprise 2.0 can bring to innovation and creativity. I write a blog that primarily focuses on Document Management in a Regulated environment, but also covers my thoughts and excitement about other related areas. (http://markjowen.wordpress.com)
