Anne-Birgitte Christensen discovered APL in 1983. After graduating as a research biologist, she was offered 6 months of training in EDP (Electronic Data Processing). When exposed to APL she immediately fell in love and never looked back. Since then she has worked as an APL consultant, headed development and sales of commercial software based on APL and finally in 2005 ended up where she started, at Dyalog Ltd. – but this time as the CEO.

Gitte Christensen's Iverson Award

History

She met Morten Kromberg via the IPSA Mailbox (also written in APL, before the Internet). In 1990 they formed Insight Systems and for a while they combined SHARP APL work with work in APL*PLUS and Dyalog APL on PCs.

Backed by SimCorp and APL Italiana, Gitte Christensen became the CEO of Dyalog Ltd. in 2005 and has held the position since. In 2016, CEO Gitte Christensen and Morten Kromberg received a joint Iverson Award for the substantial leaps forward in APL technology that have been made under their leadership.[1]
