Generation change at Dataforce: Marc A. Odinius now sole owner and Managing Director

The long-standing Managing Director Marc Odinius has acquired all shares of the Dataforce Verlagsgesellschaft für Business Informationen mbH and is now Managing Director and sole owner of the Company.
Mission of Dataforce
As to the mission of the automotive data- and market-research company, with 87 Employees, counting 27 different nationalities who reside in Frankfurt, Rome and Beijing, Odinius stated: Dataforce is always in search of unique information which will make the automotive market more transparent and easier to understand. With this mission in mind we also strive to provide fast and easy access, as well as highly standardised information through our systems.

Secret of our success
Marc Odinius is convinced that the recipe for Dataforce’s success has been and will be that it does not wait for the market to ask for a specific data or analysis. “Dataforce goes out on its own accord to find new and better information to enhance transparency on the automotive market and especially the fleet market. The hunger to know more, not just to hold the data, but to really understand the information has pushed us into the leading position in our field of expertise. Last but not least, our employees are true experts in what they do, who love to work in and on data day in and day out.”

Marc has introduced a Leadership Team which combines knowledge from all departments. Making communication easier, transparent and more straightforward helps to identify and tackle the key development projects.

Marc Odinius says thank you for the past 22 years to Christoph von Gleichen the former majority shareholder of Dataforce. Christoph commented the handover as follows: „Marc has been in charge of the operative business longer than myself, therefore no one would be better qualified and motivated to tackle this challenge than him and I am sure he will lead Dataforce into a successful future.”
