Mike Muhney’s career has truly been uniquely, irrefutably, and intensely focused on relationships. As a software entrepreneur he has developed world-class tools to enable people to realize and achieve more effective, meaningful, real, efficient, and productive relationships in both business as well as personal aspects of people's lives. In other words, helping people with their entire networks and everyone in them.

Born and raised in Chicago, Mike graduated from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign in business. He started his career with IBM in the pre-PC Mainframe era and was classically trained as a Marketing Rep (a fancy way of saying “Sales”) in their 6-month deep-dive intensive Sales Training School of which he graduated 6 out of 66 in his national class. He went on to have a very successful career with IBM before he left to go on to even greater achievements.

Mike is best known as the Co-Founder and Co-Inventor of ACT!, the product that literally created the entire Relationship Management software category and global industry and has been purchased by over 10 million people in the world and which is still today, after 28 years, the standard and leader in the Windows world, and which is acknowledged as the catalyst for today's CRM multi-billion industry.

Today Mike has gone on to invent his second award-winning product Vipor that is presently designed to address today’s mobile culture beginning with a focus on the Apple global user base approaching 1.1 billion devices and 700 million users. Vipor addresses the users needs to blend, and manage, their entire networks for both their business as well as their personal relationships, providing a seamlessly integrated multi-functional solution built into one App. VIPorbit Software has been awarded the iPhone Life Magazine’s Editor’s Choice Award, graces the cover of the last three editions of QUE Publishing’s Your iPad at Work book, and for the last two years has been ranked #1 of iBusiness Magazine’s “Top 50 Best Apps” against such notables as Evernote, Dropbox, Filemaker and others. More info on Vipor is available at www.VIPorbit.com.

In January 2015 Mike was recognized in a FORBES article as one of the “25 Professional Networking Experts to Watch in 2015” along with such notables as Tim Ferriss and Keith Ferrazzi.

Max. J. Pucher started his career with IBM where he worked 15 years internationally – including 3 years in Saudi Arabia – in hardware engineering, consulting and finally sales. He later wa the Founder and Chief Technology Officer of ISIS Papyrus Software, begun in 1988 and now 27 years in business. Today it is a medium size, but global software business with Fortune 1000 clients. Today it has 300+ employees worldwide.

Long before PDF, he was among the first to propose the ‘electronic original’ for formatted outbound documents when others still created line-mode printstreams. He invented the PrintPool, which is a spooling database for ‘electronic originals’ used to sort/bundle/consolidate documents from various applications for printing, enveloping and archiving. He designed the core technology for the Papyrus Platform with its business architecture repository, distributed OO transaction engine and its embedded object relational DB. He has software patents in the area of Artificial Intelligence for the so-called User-Trained Agent, a machine learning component for process management. It monitors the process for user activity and discovers in real-time the complex patterns that represent ‘actionable knowledge’, which it will recommend.

Because of my belief in social networking concepts I joined forces in 2010 with the Co-Founder/Co-Inventor of ACT! – the first Contact Management product for the PC – Mike Muhney. Together we founded VIPorbit Software International, Inc. to offer Mobile and Cloud solutions with Vipor®, beginning with the only full-featured Mobile Contact Manager designed for the iPhone, iPad and Mac.
