Peter Borresen has been a pioneer in electronic standards within the supply chain sector since 2003. As the editor of OIOXML based on UBL 0.7, Peter played a pivotal role in integrating electronic invoicing into Danish legislation.

In 2005, he was recruited by the Danish IT- and Telecom Agency to develop an updated version of OIOXML, resulting in OIOUBL, which harmonized Danish and European requirements and supported ordering and cataloging based on UBL 2.0.

Peter was instrumental in the creation of the Northern European Subset, a Nordic variant of OIOUBL, and led the CENBII workshops for European public sector procurement alignment.

Peter's career includes founding and chairing key workshops, contributing to the Common European Infrastructure for messages that evolved into Peppol, and shifting his focus to logistics in 2014.

As the chief architect at Clearview Trade, he chaired the UBL Transportation Subcommittee. He was also an architect in the EUPLe project and founded the Peppol Logistics project, which was completed in February 2024 with Peter as one of the editors.

In 2022, Peter founded Semantic to leverage his extensive experience and promote interoperability in supply chain logistics through Peppol Logistics.
