My name is Michael Foster and I go by Fozz and online as fozziewossie. I consider my interests varied although they probably come across as both first world and a product of my time.

From a professional standpoint I am an experienced sales professional and and Senior Account Partner at Veeva Systems. As part of my professional interests I’m deeply interested in the pharmaceutical industry and particularly the commercialization aspect of the business. This further drills down into government policy and healthcare business.

Technology wise my primary area of concerns is marketing technology including CRM, content management, digital and omnichannel engagement, staff optimization, reference data and, of course, artificial intelligence.

Previously I’d been in the Enterprise Content Management (ECM) space as a consultant working with OpenText, Documentum and other custom built technology.

I’ve had experience in many industries include Pharmaceutical (AstraZeneca, Johnson & Johnson, Sanofi, Novo Nordisk, Pfizer, Zuellig Pharma and many others), Government ( Economic Development Board of Singapore), Media (Singapore Press Holdings), Banking (Societe Generale,  ANZ) , Resource (Chevron, Inpex, BHP Billiton, Oil Search) and Tax & Legal (PwC).

I liked to make predictions. The philosophy and psychology of technology and people is endlessly fascinating. I love to read and learn and share. Keeping fit it critical to mental and physical health.

My honours was in the Artificial Intelligence space before it was cool. You can read my thesis on the The Program Structure of Genetic Programming Trees.

This fozziewossie space is an example of my skills and interests.
