My name is Uwe Schmidt, born in Germany in 1960.

I studied Protestant Theology at the universities of Marburg, Montpellier (France) and Hamburg.

After my studies I worked as a journalist (newspapers, a news agency and various radio stations) for 2 years before joining the PR agency Industrie-Contact AG, located in Hamburg, in 1989. See:  www.ic-gruppe.com (German / English)

Since 1993 I have been the CEO and co-owner of this global operating agency that networks within PRGN (Public Relations Global Network). See: www.prgn.com (English)

In addition, I am president of the charity organisation „Kinderhilfswerk für die Dritte Welt“ (Children's Charity Organisation for the Third World) with projects in 10 countries worldwide. See:  www.khw-dritte-welt.de (German, English, French, Spanish)
