Taco Fleur has been working with the Internet since its early days. After school he voluntarily went into the Dutch Royal Air force and served one year in The Hague.
17 years of age and unsure of what he wanted to do for a living, he worked in hotels like Swiss Hotel and the Hilton. After several years he decided to move to Spain at the age of 19, he worked one year at an ISP based in Marbella, doing what he loved most; designing websites and working with computers.
At the age of 21 he made the bold move to open up his own Internet Development and Hosting company called “Malaga IT”. At one stage the company employed 12 people, ranging from receptionist to designers and IT staff.
Setting up the company was one of the most exhilarating and at the same time most difficult thing he’d ever done. All business experience and knowledge had to be gained the hard way, and each day was another day of learning. Over the next 6 years he setup a complete hosting environment, with email, web and database servers, and managed several staff in hardware sales & maintenance, graphic design, programming and hosting.
Selling the company after 6 years was even harder than starting it up, but he decided that the 6 years of knowledge would allow him to build an even better company and reach his goal of owning and running a successful website one day.
At age 28 he moved to Australia Perth, and remained there for 3 months until he decided that Brisbane was the place to be. He worked for several great companies over the years like; Department of Premier and Cabinet, Tourism Queensland, Suncorp and Inco Mining.
At age 33 Taco founded clickfind the Australian Online Marketing Platform.
Taco is now the CIO and Creative Director for uniDap Solutions and has successfully overseen the implemention of a range of new innovations to the uniDap Platform.

The most complex and sophisticated structures known to man are biological organisms that use genes and DNA to codify and propagate their form and function.
Estimates on the number of cells in a Human Body range from 50 to 100 trillion, all performing their individual functions within their respective organs in perfect harmony – as directed by their genes. To manage this level of complexity, genes must have a remarkable architecture to be able to integrate and harmonize so much information reliably.
It would appear that DNA is that architecture, and that ALL biological organisms use the SAME architecture (DNA)!
