Donald Roepke Biography :

As CEO, Don Roepke is responsible for setting the company’s strategic direction and plans, for obtaining support of those plans from Datacom's directors, shareholders and the financial community, and directing the management team towards the accomplishment of those objectives. He establishes current and long range plans and policies for the company and directs the corporate governance of the Company. With a Mechanical Engineering Degree from the University of Minnesota, Don began his career with Control Data Corporation in Minneapolis. Over a 20-year career at Control Data Corporation, Don progressed to executive positions and helped direct the explosive growth of CDC’s computer systems, peripherals and service businesses. During his career at CDC Don: Headed up CDC's industry dominant OEM peripheral products sales, helping grow sales to over $700 million during his tenure. Launched the Peripheral Systems Group; grew it to $160 million in sales in a three-year period. Directed CDC’s Government Systems Marketing Group, a $500 million segment of CDC’s business that provided computer systems and services to domestic and foreign government agencies. Was in charge of CDC's entire Western European operations, a $900 million business segment covering 15 countries, 4,000 personnel, as well as manufacturing and data center facilities. Having spent twenty years in a very entrepreneurial environment, Don left CDC to do his own entrepreneuring. Ultimately, in 1992 he formed his own closely held technology company which he used as an incubator for the development of new computer industry technologies, among which were the dataSTOR application software products. Don’s ultimate vision for Datacom embraces the global reach of the Internet and its power to revolutionize the delivery and support of enterprise applications, thereby allowing for the emergence of new industry leaders. With the mandate of becoming one of those new industry leaders, in late 1998 Don moved the dataSTOR assets into a new corporate entity, Datacom, to focus resources towards that goal. Don is a large corporation trained strategic leader with a proven success in recruiting key team members, building large businesses and quickly growing sales. In addition, over his many years as a resourceful entrepreneur he has become skilled in profit and balance sheet management.
