Portrait of Frode Børli

About me

I’m Frode Børli — a software developer and entrepreneur from Norway. I’ve spent my career building products, running companies, and, more recently, returning to research.

I’m happiest at the intersection of engineering and real-world problems: figuring out what to build, then building it well. The thread running through everything I do is video, the web, and software that people depend on every day.
