    Karsten Madsen
    CEO @ Morningscore
    Karsten Madsen is a CEO at Morningscore. As he remembers, Karsten built his first company in high school. However, the company failed, and he lost a bunch of money he borrowed from his family. Then, Karsten turned the company into a web consultancy to repay the loans. Ten years later, the company grew and now has 50 employees. He spent a lot of time delving deeper into SEO and helped companies rank high on Google. Karsten noticed a recurring problem with their customers that he thought could be turned into the new software. So he helped to start a new company, and now, this company is Morningscore. Karsten and the team have gamified the work to rank high on Google. Building innovative algorithms based on web scraping is a key differentiator for Morningscore.
