Cisco Schipperheijn
Chief Technical Officer/Co-Founder

Streamline the Creation Process, Disruptive Technology, Pursuit of Perfection, Diversity of Innovation, Focus on Long-Term Viability

A recognized technology developer known for crafting the requisite strategic vision to achieve business goals, Cisco Schipperheijn offers a unique blend of executive acumen and actionable technical developments for predictable ROI and potential market dominance positioning.

As Founder and Chief Innovation and Strategic Creation Officer of Diamond Sun Labs, and Chief Technical Officer for UV One Hygienics, Cisco streamlines the creation process from conception to market debut by fulfilling predetermined consumer demand, delivering achievable resolve regarding identified market deficiencies, and anticipating the evolutionary path of a defined objective.   

Cisco is the creator of UVX light technology and the subsequent customizable product offerings UV One Hygienics has today. 

The primary factors Cisco uses to assign priority among a selection of prospective technologies are evaluating the potential to disrupt the current market standard, the confidence in his ability to develop to the point of perfection leaving little to no room for improvement and evaluate the size of the marketplace to maximize the full return on investment. 

As it is evident, considering the broad range of development currently underway at Diamond Sun Labs, and with the launch of UV One Hygienics, Cisco has demonstrated the ability to drive technical innovation among a diverse range of industries. The combined economic strength of the technologies presently in development, provide a stable financial platform to deliver long-term viability and continued innovation.   

While serving as Chief Executive Officer with Splitfish Gameware, Inc., Cisco was responsible for creation of the company’s most successful product, the fragFX FPS controller. The fragFX garnered many sales, and competitive and editorial awards. The world’s number one ranked F.P.S. player “Dennis zdd Dozier” along with countless other top tier players attribute part of their success to the fragFX controller. The other notable product developments included the eyeFX 3D adapter and the dualFX controller. These two products made their market debut on the CNBC “Power Lunch” program and featured market first innovations, which have yet to be surpassed. The eyeFX 3D is still the only device able to produce true stereoscopic 3D from games that do not support 3D. While the dualFX is the world’s first Laser guided video game controller.

Cisco’s career includes leadership roles at Consumer Broadband Network, Inc., where his duties included designing an advanced graphic user interface, and research and development as founding member and CEO. At Internet Service Brokers, Inc., Cisco held the title of Co-Founder and CEO. 

Music Service Bureau, Inc., a record company Co-Founded by Cisco, achieved recognition as one of the industry’s top independent record labels. In addition to producing Juno (Canada’s Grammy) award winning artists, Music Service Bureau, Inc., he established a global import and redistribution business. The cornerstone to the distribution arm of the business was the in-house SCO-Unix-developed “Point of Distribution” software and the global 300,000 CD-title database.

The entrepreneurial bug bit hard, leading to his early departure from high school. Eager to make his mark and confident in his ability to acquire the necessary education required to accomplish any objective, he set his sights on a small startup. Unbeknownst to him at the time, Cisco’s experience working with the founder of Aphelion Data Banks furnished him with the necessary mentorship that would forge the leadership skills he has today. Equally important was the hands-on experience he received by participating in the creation process from conception to completion. The experience as a whole has fueled his passion to develop and produce successful technical innovation. 

Dennis Gross President

Dennis Gross
President/Co-Founder

Dennis serves as the President of UV One Hygienics. He brings to the role, years of experience and relationships throughout the world.

Dennis has over 40 years’ experience in the design, development and deployment of telecommunications and payment systems; he’s worked for telecoms, money transmitters, acquiring banks and processors; and on the issuing side has launched and manages a prepaid processing platform called The Perfect Processor or TPP.  His deep understanding of the sales and marketing processes as well as the operational issues of running an authorization and card-issuing prepaid processing platform have benefited a wide range of organizations in both the private and public sectors. His key strengths are prepaid processing, program management, telecommunications, money transmissions, and applying payment skills to create opportunities of an entrepreneurial nature that include FinTech startups marketing biometric authentication systems to providers of form factors with payment-industry semiconductor technologies.

As principal and founder of The Parallel Group in 1996, Dennis has developed a reputation as one of the country’s foremost authorities on the development and implementation of stored value and prepaid programs for products such as gift cards sold at retail, incentive cards issued by resorts or issued by other types of non-bank institutions, and prepaid cards used in lieu of payroll checks.

Early in his career, Dennis spent several years in a senior management role with Western Union where he managed marketing and sales efforts in the Northeast region.  After joining MCI as a Director for Sales and Business Development, he was relocated to Dallas, TX.

Gaining significant industry knowledge and establishing his network of people and companies, Dennis exited corporate America to pursue his entrepreneurial spirit by forming a Collections Company that worked for telecommunications service providers delivering long distance services to consumers and businesses.  Dennis ran this business successfully for a decade before relocating back to New York during the heydays of prepaid long-distance calling cards.

GTS was one of the early leaders in the prepaid LD markets, where Dennis led their sales efforts in establishing themselves before they went public and finally sold, which is the largest provider of gift card malls in the US.  He left GTS and went to work for Qwest Communications International (now called CenturyLink) where he was the National Sales manager for their prepaid phone card division.

Seeing the opportunities in launching and managing prepaid card programs, Dennis and his partner, Fred Kortmann, first launched a Prepaid Program Management shop which they transformed into a full-blown prepaid processing authorization platform with bank sponsorship issuing Visa and Mastercard-branded prepaid cards in a variety of venues.  The Perfect Processor or TPP, Ltd. Was formed in 2013 and is a successful prepaid processing platform becoming a significant player in the ‘FinTech Industry’ which is a large group of tech savvy companies providing alternatives to traditional banking via the delivery of superior technologies and mobile applications.

In 2017, Dennis and his colleagues were introduced to a group developing several patented, industry-changing nanotechnologies.  Once again, seeing a large potential to redefine an industry, Dennis is heading up a group of scientists and investors to form what is now BioVectrics, which is a biometrics authentication software that runs on semiconductor technologies costing less than $1 instead of the $5 to $7 normally charged for chips capable of processing a biometric comparison transaction.

Dennis believes in giving back to the community and is an active member of the community.  He holds a BA in Management from Fordham University and an MBA in International Business from Columbia University.  Dennis is married and lives in New York on Long Island.
