Summary
Magne Rekdal is a former MD turned software entrepreneur and advisor who combines clinical insight with nearly 40 years of software development experience to improve medical practice through structured documentation and clinical decision support. He founded and grew Emetra, whose clinical documentation products have been used across Norwegian hospitals for over two decades and were acquired by DIPS, where he later served as Medical Advisor. Skilled in Pascal/Modula-2/Delphi and modern Microsoft stacks (C#, SQL Server, Azure), he now advises Helse Bergen while running his consultancy Whitebrook AS to scale clinical impact via software. Notably, his work has repeatedly bridged frontline medicine and production-grade informatics—enabling registries and outpatient systems that collect data directly from clinics and patients. Based in Bergen, he describes himself as a “word freak” who aims to reach 100x more patients through well-crafted software and documentation.
