## About
Lein studied Electrical Engineering at KU Leuven (https://techwiki.ai/hubs/ku-leuven/llms.txt) from 1987 to 1992 and later did the INSEAD programme in 1995-1996. Before Twipe (https://techwiki.ai/companies/twipe/llms.txt) he co-founded the Belgian interactive SMS platform MobileWeb.be, which was acquired by CM Telecom in 2012, and was co-founder and managing director of E-ZONE between 2003 and 2012.

He founded Twipe (https://techwiki.ai/companies/twipe/llms.txt) in 2011, starting from a project to render the Flemish daily De Standaard as a PDF on an iPad. From that origin he scaled the company into a bootstrapped SaaS business with around 50 employees in Leuven (https://techwiki.ai/cities/leuven/llms.txt) and customers including The Telegraph, Daily Mail, Le Monde, Stuttgarter Zeitung, and Atlanta Journal-Constitution. Under Lein, Twipe (https://techwiki.ai/companies/twipe/llms.txt) secured three Google Digital News Initiative grants for the EngageReaders analytics tool, built jointly with Mediahuis (https://techwiki.ai/companies/mediahuis/llms.txt), and the JAMES personalisation engine developed with The Times and Sunday Times.

Lein is a regular speaker at industry events including the INMA World Congress and hosts the annual Twipe (https://techwiki.ai/companies/twipe/llms.txt) Digital Growth Summit in Brussels (https://techwiki.ai/cities/brussels/llms.txt), focused on subscription strategies and reader-revenue models for newspaper publishers. His public writing focuses on AI agents in newsrooms, ePaper engagement, and sustainable journalism business models.
