Dynamic Concepts Development Corporation

The year was 1984 and the "Personal Computer Revolution" was picking up steam. IBM had revolutionized the field with the introduction of their "PC" and "XT" machine, and the "AT" class was being introduced. Major companies were beginning to invest in desktop computers for various application.

David V. Corbin had been programming computers since the fall of 1972, originally on a Digitial Equipment Corporation PDP-8 Mini Computer, and later on the various computers that were introduced by companies such as Radio Shack, Commodore, KayPro, Zenith and Heath. In 1977 he was hired by Defense Sub-Contractor ILC Data Device Corporation (Bohemia, NY) to assist in the development of automated test equipment, and later embedded military computer system.

Through a series of connections, he met the Research Director of Hearts Business Publications (Garden City, New York). The company had two immediate needs. First was the upgrading of a significant number of systems from the original IBM 4.77Mhz models to faster "Clone" machine that had speeds of 8MHz and 10Mhz. Second, they had software requirements that could not be met with the available "off-the-shelf" products.

David teamed up with hardware specialist James Tremel to form Dynamic Concepts as a part time venture, and won the contract for both the hardware upgrades and the software development. The programs were developed usig dBase II, and both projects were a huge success. Dynamic Concepts became to "vendor of choice" for all PC based programming at Hearst Business Publications, and provided a large number of custom solutions. With this track record Dynamic Concepts was soon able to book contracts with other large companies such as Philips Business Systems (Norelco), as well as with many smaller companies who needed software that was tailored to their specific business requirements.

In 1992, the defense industry on Long Island, New York was undergoing severe cutbacks with many of the major companies leaving the region. It was time to take Dynamic Concepts to full time status. CMP Publications (Manhassett, New York) was planning on entering the electronic publishing age with "NetSource". This cd-rom based publication combined full text search capability of all 12 technical paper publications, searchable database comparisions (based on the comparision charts from the publications), along with third party content such as demos, and multi-media publications. Dynamic Concepts successfully designed and implemented the product, and it was demonstrated at a large number of trade shows across the country, with David Corbin often doing the demonstrations himself.

For the next 13 years, Dynamic Concepts won contracts in nearly every vertical market, including: Finance, Medical, Industrial, and General Business. Clients ranged from small firms to large corporations. Geographically these clients ranged from Germany to Australia with the majority in the United States.

In 2005, David was presented with an opportunity to work directly with Microsoft Consulting Services as a Senior Field Consultant. Dynamic Concepts was scaled back to only providing support for existing customers, and for the next two years, David traveled the country helping clients integrate the latest offerings from Microsoft Corporaton into their environments.

In 2007, David returned to running Dynamic Concepts Development Corporaton as President, and Chief Architect. Combining the breadth and depth of his experience, Dymanic Concepts Development Corporaton has been able assist companies in both leveraging cutting-edge technology and in maintaining or upgradinging their legacy systems.

In 2008, David was named a "Microsoft MVP" for this developer community environment involvement. Dontating his time at various on-line forums and with local user groups, he freely offers advice on many different aspects of software development.
