Lukas has been providing core technologies and support to Broadside Capital's portfolio companies, including Fierce Entertainment, since 2005. Lukas' IT versatility is perfectly suited to the gamut of requirements inherent in Broadside's business scope. He has ten years experience in the investment banking division of Deutsche Bank in Frankfurt, where he was responsible for design and implementation of automated and control systems that allowed for: third party transaction matching; secure telecommuting; interfaces with Bloomberg and the Frankfurt Stock Exchange; custodial account management and performance analysis; and limiting transaction errors and bottlenecks. He also served as the Webmaster for Deutsche Bank's Corporate Investment Banking website.

And Lukas shares the entrepreneurial spirit, having used his expertise to either start or take over a number of IT based enterprises. He has provided consultation to small businesses through his company Fabercomtec.de, which included system administration, network design and implementation, and webhosting. He has established an intranetwork for AirCanada Cargo to track cargo shipments; took over the support of tour giant Carrera's booking system; and run the call center for a Luftansa subsidiary. He was also a principal in an internet shoe sales company, developing and maintaining an automated system that tracked up to 4,500 transactions per month on Ebay.
