From his early DJing escapades at school in Munich, Germany, Karim Morsy - the head of DJ software company Algoriddim - has come a long way. He and his team built their company - home of the Apple-centric "djay" apps - into one of the most respected DJ software developers out there. But nothing could have prepared him for what happened next...

Despite not really understanding what Karim did for a living and wondering when he'd get a "real job", even Karim's parents finally had to admit that there might be something in what their son had chosen to do for a living... when he wandered out onto the stage on a globally televised Apple Keynote and began DJing on his iPad!
