About Virtual Iris Founder, Dr. Gary Kramer
Dr. Gary Kramer, Founder, CEO and Chief Software Designer, is the chief architect of Virtual Iris’ innovative patented technology.
A dedicated entrepreneur, Gary founded Speedscan, a multi-million dollar global document imaging company that under his guidance expanded from North America to Australia, Africa and Asia.
Speedscan was the direct result of Gary’s entrepreneurial spirit and unique programming expertise. As a general practitioner, he was appalled by the length of time it took to process and store medical data. Taking matters into his own hands, Gary conceptualized a way to get the job done faster and more efficiently. Alongside a team of developers, Gary developed proprietary COLD and Imaging software systems that would become Speedscan. Many Fortune 1000 companies – including Caterpillar, McDonald’s and Visa – would soon count on Speedscan for software and systems that enabled them to display graphical printed information digitally.
After helming Speedscan for 10 years, Gary sold out to Colonial and Commonwealth Bank of Australia. Speedscan was eventually sold to, and now operates under, Data Impact.
Gary’s other accomplishments include his early days as a nationally ranked tennis player in Africa. He holds a medical degree from the University of Witwatersrand in South Africa.
